Former president Bill Clinton has lent his support to an effort to develop a starship within a century. He agrees with the project's leaders that such a project would lead to scientific and technological breakthroughs along the way that would enhance life on Earth even as we pushed towards the stars.
Even though Bill Clinton saved NASA's space station program by bringing in international partners to build what became ISS, he was not known as a president overly interested in space policy. It's interesting he would take a position on interstellar flight. Perhaps he is mainly attracted to the economic development possibilities.
