To the moon, NASA? Not on this budget, experts say, AP
“NASA has been like a star athlete that’s broken world records back in the 1960s and is stuck in the bleachers ever since, unable to suit up for what it does best,” said space scientist Alan Stern, who quit last year as NASA’s associate administrator for science. But, as has been the case since about 1971, money is holding engineers back, Stern said. “Bush never delivered on his promise to up NASA’s funding,” Stern said. He added that the previous NASA administrator “tried cannibalizing NASA (to pay for exploration) but that wasn’t enough.”
