What a waste of money. Why not spend it on the life here instead of searching for possible life out there.

because hydrocarbons there. Hydrocarbons = oil/coal = money
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrocarbon
The majority of hydrocarbons found on Earth naturally occur in crude oil...
Also, the conditions described sound strangely like what is conjectured to have existed on earth billions of years ago when life first arose here. They are going diving in primordial soup.

Also, I don't think exploring space is a waste at all. If the money wasn't spent on space exploration it wouldn't be spent on humane projects instead. There is plenty to go around here but those in power just choose not to make "here" a priority. No matter what, we're going to go there if we don't blow ourselves up first. Its our fate. Well one of those is our fate.

Oooohh...

My husband told me that rocket fuels are made from hydrocarbons. In order to leave the solar system for space travel we need a source of refuelling.

I asked him at dinner after I had asked you about it.
