Im sure that "global warming" is a better cause anyways, huh. Besides, only about 8,000 jobs have been lost thus far. Thank you Barack Obama, for beginning to cut NASA.

Almost all the current research, especially telescopic, is geared towards finding another inhabital world. Not necessarily to find intelligent life, they may be impossible to communicate with, or outright dangerous. The question is- WHO will go? I believe any plan that does not include ALL of humanity would fail miserably. Folks just aren't going to give a homey wave and "Bye!" to those leaving them behind to die! Remember Vernor Vinge's book "Marooned in Realtime" (sequel to "The Peace Wars")? Just read them, all of his work is excellent, and offers unique insights into just such delimas. Please forgive any spelling errors, John N. About the goal of inhabiting other worlds-

Ironic. We beat them in the Space Race, now NASA will have to start mooching a ride with Russia unless corporates start sponsoring them. TV networks give millions away each week on their game shows. I hope they turn their millions to NASA. NASA employees told me that they would either have to get corporate sponsors, or start hitching a ride with RUSSIA. Ironic.

Just because America's space budget is going bankrupt doesn't mean we should turn it over to an unregulated space commercial market as a last resort. We're simply not ready to do so yet. Our space ethics in the private industry right now is zilch and a commercialized space now will likely mirror the greed, absence of morality and ethical behavior that is now so common in our business community and society today.

His biggest claim to these new plans are ALL THE JOBS THAT WILL BE CREATED...which is what he's been about since campaining for office. He's being short sighted for the purpose of the next 3 years of his agenda, and is sacraficing years and years and billions of dollars for his 3 years. I'm sure he wants to be the Pres that changed America- at the expense of long term human space exploration.... Thats too bad.

Technology is much better now, and technology costs more money...so maybe they should try to dumb down the technology- a mix between Apollo and new technology to make affordable. This is just ludicris- Can't afford it...ha. Yes, I'm sure it's Billions of dollars...but what is money compared to our species surviving past the life of our planet. If we aren't going back soon, they should still set a date/destination So, they can’t “afford it”….Nasa did it 40 years ago, but can’t now?

To give him an indication there is a sizable portion of the public who cares about the future of the space program. This video should have been submitted for Obama to see.

The only place I've gotten to routinely interract with people my age who have an interest in space exploration was at Space Academy, and that was only for one week out of the year. It's such a relief to see someone reaching out to children who are interested in space advocacy. Mr. Cheetam, as a high school student, I personally want to thank you for your program.
