To "weather monitor" or not to "weather monitor"

What are some things that we can do in space? This question has been a real thing since 1957, GO MOTHERLAND! And since 2004 when Bush decided to do something about the Moon, boo hoo...



Number one thing that we can do is monitor and record Earth's climate via Satellite.

At the moment (issue's date), there is some budget cutting going on and some funds that were directed towards climate, ice caps on poles,  CO2 and monitoring other things. 600 x10^(6)$ of these funds were redirected towards space shuttle and space station over 5 years! Which means that satellites that are monitoring these thigns will have gaps in data because Earth sciences are forced to replace/fix/update satellites minimally, i.e when they break... So that sucks and such cases are there because some of the data was actually bought from India's satellites to monitor crop productivity. And other satellites that will have gaps in data might run on problems, such as: if new satellite detects that the Sun is brighter, so now it'll be impossible to determine without a trendline whether the Sun actually got brighter or the instrument was not properly calibrated!
