I don't think measuring progress is tivial enough to make that assumption. It's also unfair to blame a fascination with deep space for any slower progress, things are more complicated than that.
Getting humans onto anther planet asap is one of the most important things one can pursuit for humanity. The earth is a giant single point of failure
