ABORT! Obama's Budget Ends Mission To Moon, page 1

I am very much into astronomy, I live on the space coast, and initially was driving at being an astronaut.

I am still all of the above (astronaut is unlikely), but I see NASA as a fund wasting slowdown of space exploration/exploitation. This needs to go commercial. Russia is now taking passengers to make ends meet...NASA wants us to believe space is its domain only. I want this giant wrench to be fished out of the machine of exploration...

But then again, I firmly believe NASA supresses antigrav technology...and any agency that supresses progress for whatever purpose is an agency I oppose.

As capitalists, I am suprised you dont hail this as a good move...it opens up companys to open up space...and more chances of common people eventually being able to take a ride/weekend getaway in a station, etc.

I see no intelligent reason to spend a dime going to the moon when we have enough problems currently on earth. The country has no business in space or in helping other countries until we dig ourselves out of our own current crisis.

well if they cut space exploration, then what happens if we have to find somewhere else to live other than earth because we ruin it, and we haven't been exploring space, we are royally screwed in that instance

If we as a species ruin earth before we find somewhere else to live, we deserve our fate. Its what us crazy liberals have been screaming about for about 20 years now..

How about any promises. What's he done that's positive? Who's a worse President? Who has done more to destroy the country and devalue the dollar?

I'm not here to talk polotics, I'm here to talk about space, but this makes me so mad that I'm on the verge of letting loose with some serious rants.
