Can you believe what the pork-barrelers are doing to the NASA-funded
competitive prizes program?

http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/cpquery/?&dbname=cp109&sid=cp109s0tv8&refer=&r_n=sr280.109&item=&sel=TOC_385521&

"The Committee does not provide any funding in fiscal year 2007 for the
Centennial Challenges program. Funding provided in previous fiscal years for
this program is sufficient for NASA to run a prize based competition, as
well as to verify that NASA will see tangential benefits from running such a
program. Providing additional funds to a program based on prizes only
creates a pot of unused funds while other aspects of NASA's mission are
being cut or delayed due to a lack of funds."
