Let the UN run the space program.
If I were a betting man, my guess is that NASA will continue to fail spectacularly — and worse, continue to heavily ‘invest’ in liberal feel good projects like the ISS.
Please fail!!! Let the civilian side of the house take over this program. I bet they would do better than the government. Of course I always get bashed when I discuss getting rid of anything dealing with NASA. FREEPERS are definitely great at wanting smaller government unless it is dealing with a pet issue like NASA and space program.
Not to worry all those who think government controls all... They will run out of money long before Mars is a gleam in your eye...heh. We will be lucky to even think about protecting the US (ie. defense), so no worries about space exploration and such...
N.A.S.A. has become just another bloated govt pathetic agency.
recent reports that the U.S. is moving toward a decision to continue supporting ISS through 2020, despite the fact that it will add a couple of billion dollars per year to the NASA budget
