I could get behind a space program that didn’t just send shuttles to NEO and kill frogs and look at crystal formation. If we had a real colonization effort with a base on the moon, or plans for mars that people were serious about, I could get into it. These are bigger-than-life things. But as of now I say scrap the whole thing. Privatizing space completely is the best way to go imho, there’s money to be made, and not just in tourism (though at first, that’s the obvious choice).
NASA was preety good when the Germans ran it. Now it is just a make work - muslim outreach govt agency.
Liberalism killed NASA and people voted for this in 2008. Hope and Change.
Don't forget all those important global warming observations!.....
If NASA had committed to a specific space shuttle replacement back after the loss of Challenger, they would not be closing down the manned program now. Instead, they farted around for twenty years. This one is not Obama's fault.
