You know, all of the above could have been done without the shuttle program or the space program, but necessity is the mother of invention. Usually, new technology comes out of trying to meet a particular need rather than a brilliant idea off the top of an inventors head.

So many things that are a part of daily life have come from the things created to meet specific needs of the space program that it would be a shame to stop that process.
