The correct answer is A) The space shuttle program has come to an end.
The author thinks that the time may now be right to focus on ocean research because the space shuttle program has come to an end.
The main argument for the author to support ocean exploration is that he considered that the space shuttle program of NASA had already ended in 2011. Too much money -billions of dollars- had been invested in the space program, and now it was time to enter the unknown territories of the oceans.
