When I was a kid, NASA and space exploration absolutely fascinated me. Heck, I wanted to be an astronaut. For the last 10 years or so, however NASA failed to sustain my interest. But now, with its Deep Space and Deep Space 2 missions, NASA, to me, has started to get really interesting again. These are the types of programs that would get a younger generation interested in space exploration, and get their imaginations revved up. So I say, give NASA a break-- who knows, these programs might inspire some kid to become an astronmer, astrophysicist, or even an astronaut.
