NASA Weighs Moon Plans

Posted by samzenpus on from the one-of-these-days-alice dept.

mknewman writes "Space.com is reporting that NASA is set to roll out next month a U.S. national strategy for lunar exploration, one that outlines both robotic exploration needs and the rationale for sending humans back to the Moon. This has been sorely missing in Bush's Vision for Space Exploration."

    If you think health care system spending is too high, you are probably under the mistaken idea that it's all for other people, and you'll never need to use the system yourself. I don't think you'll find anyone (sane) in an emergency room that wants to sign your petition endorsing less public spending on health care. Feel free to do your part, though, by putting DNR instructions in your wallet. Medical care and the military have a lot in common, they are only appreciated and supported when we need them RIGHT NOW, and then it's usually too late to add resources.
