How many working hours, tons of materials will it take?
Could they be used on more relevant needs to humanity?
If so, why use them on a moonshot we will die before humanity achieves? Essentially approving burning up resources on unverifiable, perhaps unachievable outcomes?

Secular norms and justifications are not sacrosanct. The dollar is a made up token of power.
