What some of you do not realize is that there is a system to advancement. We can’t just design and fly to Mars, its not like that. The flight to Mars would take years and we are not yet sure how that kind of time would effect astronauts on the deep space mission. Tests need to be run on the moon before they can be sure that the safety and health of those on the mission in that deep of space would be possible or how to achieve it. There have also been many new more efficient ways to travel to space being designed and tested. Lowering the budget is essentially killing the hope that NASA had to travel back to and beyond the moon, at least for now.

All you degenerates who claim NASA should have budget cuts cause of tax money are simply uninformed idiots.

the US citizens are paying taxes for wall street BAILOUTS in the trillions. . . ie morgage insurance companies, hedgefunds/private investment firms, banks and currently international banks ( bank of scottland and bank of London….) so stop talking about taxes. U guys have no idea where are tax dollars are going… Let alone it’s uselessness – the collapse of the economy is at hand.

Good morning everyone, I have done alot of research working for a privately owned astrophysics team. If noone understand’s what’s truly been going on for quite a while
This is new leak in the government that they do not wish for you to hear,Some may say.
Back in 2002 We all learned about a new shuttle that was about 4 times the size of the one’s we currently have in out hangers. But it was never releaved to where the location of this shuttle had been put.,They had said they were going to use this for future missions to other planets. So here we are saying goodbye to the Space progam,But in all reality if you would pay attention to the news more often instead of many other things, And if you studied the Earth as I do, You would know that they are actually trying to find a way to save everyone from what is about to happen in the near future,As you all know about a comet and astroid they have claimed to not be in our heading but actually we are in it’s heading and there’s nothing noone can do nor nothing noone can say that will change anything. So this is the final mission to space ,Due to the end of the world coming from the astroid and comet coming our way,As you also were aware that a planet does not just pop up out of no where we’ve been to this other planet you can look up the new planet that is actually our brightest star out there as well. So God Bless and God speed to everyone..

Thanks for the write-up. My spouse and i have generally observed that a lot of people are desperate to lose weight as they wish to show up slim plus attractive. However, they do not generally realize that there are additional benefits for losing weight additionally. Doctors state that obese people are afflicted by a variety of health conditions that can be instantly attributed to their own excess weight. The good thing is that people who’re overweight in addition to suffering from a variety of diseases are able to reduce the severity of their particular illnesses through losing weight. You possibly can see a slow but notable improvement with health if even a minor amount of fat reduction is accomplished gywl512.

Hello this is Zefey Love, It is not very smart to cut the very source that gave us the technology for a safer Defense, in 1957, it wasn’t the prospect that cosmonauts might beat American astronauts into space that worried Washington. What had policymakers panicked was the prospect that America’s main Cold War adversary would use the same (rocket technology) to develop a force of intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) , its not the time to stop progress and technology, now that you’re into it so deeply,It’s like waving a white flag.

Constellation Program (abbreviated CxP) was a human spaceflight program within NASA, the space agency of the United States. The stated goals of the program were to gain significant experience in operating away from Earth’s environment, develop technologies needed for opening the space frontier, and conduct fundamental science.[1]

Constellation was developed through the Exploration Systems Architecture Study, which determined how NASA would pursue the goals laid out in the Vision for Space Exploration and the NASA Authorization Act of 2005, to send astronauts first to the International Space Station, then to the Moon, and afterward to Mars and other destinations beyond.[2]

On February 1, 2010, President Barack Obama announced a proposal to cancel the program, effective with the U.S. 2011 fiscal year budget[update],[3][4][5][6] but later announced changes to the proposal in a major space policy speech at Kennedy Space Center on April 15, 2010. Obama signed the NASA Authorization Act of 2010 on October 11 which officially brought the program to an end. WOW what a Travisty!

SPACE THE FINAL FRONTIER…..Where is STAR FLEET when you need them…….YES we are NOT alone, and SPACE IS NOT JUST OURS, I am against taking any funding away from NASA. They have discovered so much and GIVEN so much to man kind, but maybe (we) meaning the whole EARTH should form a Federation And every nation should help foot the Bill $$$$ . We need to learn to work togeather and get RID of the petty Greedy Power Hungry crap, if we are going to GROW as a species and venture out into space. Gene Roddenbury had it RIGHT !.

I do not agree to privatize the space exploration, there are other countries with more money available than us that can buy that technology too. This companies will sell the technology to the country that pay them more. This is a national security issue too. Also, MRI technology is thanks to NASA too. In the future China, Russia, and others countries can pay or offer more money to the private companies and what do you think is going to happen? Where are we going? countries with more money will be one step ahead from us if the space program is privatized. NASA should have all the money necessary to develope new technologies, space exploration, research, and defense. I do agree to come back to the moon because if we are planning to go to Mars we need a new spaceship or rockets that we can prove them going to the moon first, coming back to the moon is the first step to go to mars. I am not going to vote for Obama!
