Because the public has little to no attention span or memory to speak of,
and it is them (the public) who must fund such projects as space
exploration.  If NASA would have said: "Give us a cool million today so we
can send a probe to Mars in five or ten years" there would have never been
a Mars Mission.  As it was, the only way funding got through was by the
"Life on Mars" pseudo-hysteria.
