NASA's new space exploration program may be skewed toward sending astronauts to an asteroid and onto Mars, but a return to Earth's moon is not completely lost, NASA's deputy chief told reporters today (Sept. 30).
NASA deputy administrator Lori Garver, the space agency's second-in-command, said the moon has a role to play in the new space exploration plan set by President Obama and approved by Congress this week. NASA, she added, won't turn its back on Earth's nearest neighbor.

Yeah, more fake landings is what the nation needs!
Right, 'cause it will build Muslims' self-esteem to be able to go to the moon.
It’s not dead, it’s just been pinning for the Fjords for > 30 years.
It shouldn’t be. Its value as a launch pad alone is incalculable.
Obama's and assteroid.
Of course it isn’t. India or China will be there soon - we’ll get to watch on tv!
Since the Moon is the home of the supposed God of Islam.
The U.S. must wait for approval from the Islamic States and The Foriegn Nations Association (aka UN) to proceed…
Further they have not finalized the government funded Public TV shows:
On the Road with the Grand Ayatollah,
Imam in Space,
Space travel with Allah,
The Great Mosque of the Universe and everything in life...
Yeah, we need to fake it six more times.
We should have already had a base on the Moon. It could have been our 51st state!
So many decades wasted.....
Muslims have to feel good about themselves! Space is for Islam!
Imams in Space...(using a loud echo and reverb; they like that type of stuff)
If they want to go, let them, they just have to pay for it themselves.
It isn't dead yet because NASA needs to land Muslims there so that they can build another "VICTORY Mosque"!
Bullshit!
Her boss won’t be President in a few years and lunar return will be back on the table. It’s beyond obvious to be our first major stepping stone of colonizing and learning to live in the solar system. The argument is only going to grow to a fervor. It’s unavoidable. In the mean time we can build Orion and the heavy lift rocket that will make it possible despite Ozero’s failed attempts to kill and delay them.
Eff you Garver. You make me sick with your two faced lies. You deserve to be now where near America’s space program.
Garver is all about herself and desire for positions of power under democrat slimbags.
In fact I do my own exploration often.
It's a search & rescue mission for the 12th Imam.
