How is making our astronautics ride on ancient Soyuz rockets better than using our aging (but reasonably reliable) space shuttles? Ever seen how they land those things in Central Asia on the return? Guess we’ll rent rides from the Russians until American astronauts die one day, then Obama will be forced to own this sorry situation.

Now now kids, NASA has a bold new mission: to reach out to the Muslim world and make them feel good about themselves! Cheer up!

That’s no joke. NASA receives money but has to give it to the muslims as some kind of feel-good ourtreach ********. Ridiculous.

we were paying less than a penny from every tax dollar to support a program which was a shining example of American Exceptionalism … we are now going to pay through our hitchhiking agreement with Russia for a billion dollar upgrade of their space program … do the math at $52,000,000 per astronauts seat it will only take 19.23 astronaut trips for us to pay for Russia’s new launch facilities while we loose thousands of scientists and engineers while mothballing our facilities … Ending our program is political correctness combined with severe frontal lobe deterioration! PS The shuttles were designed for 100 trips to space each and we have a private company which has been petitioning to continue the Shuttle Program why isn’t this a part of the discussion?
