He needs the money for vote buying.
Set to kill it, my @$$.
Mission Accomplished.
I expect a foreign policy crisis soon. Our enemies know that this is a time when they can get away with almost anything: Obama's plate is full with Golf and Gulf. Things like North Korea, Israel, and Iran just aren't going to catch his attention.
government space travel don’t make US great, nasa to US is like the Colosseum for the roman empire
“Obama Set To Kill Manned Space Exploration”
...and jobs, the economy, access to affordable energy, the health care system, the automotive industry, etc...
Ping.
Is there anything this guy will not kill? Jesus... job killing, nature killing, now science killing too?
The goal is to kill off America as a superpower.
You can’t have Global government with a superpower existing.
And you can’t have a superpower with a sound economy and thriving industrial base working.
Everything he’s done is to take us all down. The guy is a closet muslim, bisexual, foreigner, marxist. That’s why he hates this country so much. No one who loves their country sets about to destroy their country like he has, trying to pass it off as ‘saving’ the country.
He didn’t, nor will he, kill Jesus.
Just wait til Mars asks him for a bailout.
its time to abolish nasa and replace it with more private space companies. nasa is a bureaucratic mess. It takes them $1billion to send a man into space which cost a private company $50 mil. $950 mil is better spend elsewhere
space travel must be against the koran. If ahlla had meant for man to go to outer space he would have gave us flying carpets. ha.
China? Russia? Space, the moon... all yours!

Is he killing government manned space exploration or private manned space exploration or both?
He is ridding the USA of “needless” accomplishments like being a technological superpower in the forefront of the arts & sciences, a sense of purpose, American uniqueness in a primitive and increasingly irresponsible and G-dless world. Who needs manned exploration when you are busy golfing or blaming the previous administration for your lack of governing or leadership. What counts is trying to turn the economy and nation around in a European sort of way, like Greece and Spain for example.
“Is he killing government manned space exploration or private manned space exploration or both?”
He’s trying to kill the return to moon program called Constellation.
Private entities have not orbited a single person yet. They are many years away from that. Obama favors this to take our astronauts to the space station instead of our astronauts riding Russian rockets as shuttle retires.
He offers nothing concrete to get beyond low earth orbit.
He wants to take five years to think about developing heavy lift rockets at NASA and explore “game changing” technology development.
Yes, he is killing NASA human spaceflight for all resonable purposes, and is set against returning to the moon.
He offers very long term promises of beyond low earth missions like visting an asteroid. And he mumbles about Mars. But of course there is nothing he proposes that will actually be built now.
Constellation was hardware being developed right now.
