NASA’s New Budget: Treading Water, SpaceRef

“Today, NASA will unveil the Fiscal Year 2007 budget request that the White House will be submitting to Congress. While NASA will get an increase over the FY 2006 budget – the increase is only 1%. In an overall sense, NASA’s budget does not keep up with inflation – thus leaving the agency barely able to tread water. Moreover, NASA is getting far less than NASA had originally hoped for – and much less than the White House had planned just two short years ago.”
