Not Dead Yet? NASA Still Working on Rockets Obama Sidelined

A trans-lunar spacecraft being relegated to an LEO Escape Pod, looks like we got a Billion $ Soyuz. But if it keep progress going on Orion I'm all for it, I just hope the next administration puts some funding back in to NASA. Currently Obama lost my next vote when he canceled the new Lunar Mission for Orion.

BTW when you go though you pocket change tonight, look at that penny there. Think about 1/2 of that. For every tax dollar you give to Washington that 1/2 of a cent goes to NASA. That 1/2 of a cent gives us the Shuttle, the ISS, The Hubble, Space Camp, Astronaut visits to schools, environmental research, Mars rovers, Probes the gas giants and Pluto, plus dozens of other programs. Would you miss another 1/2 of a penny at the end of the day?
