Critics are mistaken when they claim that the government’s priorities are misplaced because we have launched rockets into space instead of solving major social problems. Rocket technology is much easier to understand than the human psyche. And to solve these social problems, we must first understand the human psyche.

This is a premise that supports the conclusion that the criticism from social critics is misplaced.

This is not an objection to the argument’s conclusion. The author agrees with this statement and uses it as a premise to support their conclusion.

The argument does not say that this fact “misled” social critics. Rather, it suggests that the critics are wrong in assuming that solving social problems should be easier than rocket launches.

This statement is not the conclusion of the argument. The conclusion is that the criticism of the government is misplaced, and this statement is used as a premise to support it.

The author does not claim that this assumption is false. The author believes this fact and uses it to support its main conclusion. Furthermore, the opposing argument does not rest on this assumption (in fact, it operates without it)

This statement is used as a premise to support the author’s main conclusion that social critics' critiques are unfounded. Thus, this undermines the critics' argument that the government should prioritize solving social problems over space exploration.
