Oh yeah, I forgot to mention. Even though public funded governments did a lot of heavy lifting, there also exists a modern renaissance with private companies getting into space. Elon Musk's SpaceX comes to mind, with even the ambitious goal of colonizing Mars (around or before the U.S government does?). Elon Musk is also noted for being the first man to claim foreign planets will be subject to his own laws. So even Libertarians believe in conquering Space as well.
