Part of the far-right GOPs vision ? Kill pension funds, break up NASA, loot Social Security..... Bush was recently in India defending the offshoring of US jobs. After the second Shuttle disaster Bush was forced to make a talk about science and space : so he gave NASA a huge new list of impossible tasks like sending people to Mars, doing robot missions around the Solarsystem, get Shuttle trucking to ISS, land on the Moon, finish the space-station, build a new Saturn-5 rocket, build a base to mine the Moon. The Bush-plan was always going to be an impossible task and thus set up NASA for another massive fall. Seems Bush-Jnr is trying to kill every single federal government program and do what Nixon finally wanted to do - end US space exploration.

He is now outsourcing NASA to India
Now he just has to break up NASA a little more and outsource the rest of it to cheap places like Malaysia, Egypt, China, Pakistan, Russia...etc

NASA will be sucked dry and broken up

NASA is going extinct like the dinosaurs
if you want to know who the heck is getting off the 3rd rock from the Sun - ask Russians, Burt Rutan or the Chinese

Your post is misleading, dishonest and inflammatory.

Nowhere in the article does it say anything about outsourcing NASA to India. In fact, the only place that jobs are mentioned, it's India who has contracted a U.S. company to improve their traffic control system.

There's a bit about putting a NASA instrument on an Indian lunar mission, and another about promoting interoperability between Indian and U.S. systems. That's about the extent of it.

Everyone should ignore your thread title and post, and read the article and judge for themselves.

The future of space lies in Mojave California. This was always the way. Aviation in its extant form was born not in Kitty Hawk but a little town called Hammondsport NY. The future of space is here, and the sun has far from set on the USA. All we have to do is free ourselves of the shackles of the tax monster, which is the only thing, and I say the *ONLY* thing causing outsourcing today.

NASA's budget request for fiscal year 2007 includes postponement or abandonment of several key space-exploration programs, including the James Webb Space Telescope, which is intended as a partial replacement for the aging Hubble, and the Terrestrial Planet Finder, the giant telescope expected to be able to take photographs of Earthlike planets orbiting distant stars.

astrobiology killed
The primary reasons NASA developed astrobiology was to impact all of NASA's missions including Earth science (planetary ecology), astrophysics (Kepler is a perfect example), and solar system exploration (Mars is just one example). Human exploration was always known to be an activity that would occur in the far distant future. Mars missions are not going away. The queue that exists continues to grow. A new Mars Scout mission Announcement of Opportunity is about to be released. Only by funding the science and instrument programs will future principal investigators be able to truly look for the "fingerprints of life."

NASA can't be doing science education no more - facts about planets might offend the religious zealots and witch burners.
George Deutsch, a presidential appointee in NASA headquarters, told a Web designer working for the agency to add the word “theory” after every mention of the Big Bang, according to an e-mail message from Mr. Deutsch that another NASA employee forwarded to The Times.
The Big Bang memo came from Mr. Deutsch, a 24-year-old presidential appointee in the press office at NASA headquarters whose résumé says he was an intern in the “war room” of the 2004 Bush-Cheney re-election campaign. A 2003 journalism graduate of Texas A&M, he was also the public-affairs officer who sought more control over Dr. Hansen’s public statements.

The top climate scientist at NASA says the Bush administration has tried to stop him from speaking out since he gave a lecture last month calling for prompt reductions in emissions of greenhouse gases linked to global warming.

Beyond Einstein would be delayed indefinitely. These are missions such as Constellation -X and LISA that would attempt to answer questions about the Big Bang, Black Holes and Dark Matter.
The Associated Press has reported that a long list of satellites orbiting Earth are under threat of being delayed, downsized or cancelled. Scientists have warned that decreasing funding for these satellites will jeopardize the capability for forecasting weather and monitoring environmental issues.

Some people say NASA is being slowly broken up to Evangelical zealots and rightwing Ultra-Captialists, whatever is left of NASA after this madness will be outsourced to India

Guys like Rutan will help push us out there to a new frontier, and many also say the Solar System's future is Chinese

the Red China alarm bells are ringing

U.S. losing space race, congressmen say
WASHINGTON - Some congressmen believe the United States and China are in an unacknowledged space race that this country could lose if it doesn't spend more money on the civilian space program.
The communist nation's military runs its manned space program, employs an estimated 200,000 workers and has set a goal of putting an astronaut on the moon by 2017...

http://www.flatoday.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060331/NEWS02/603
310339/1007/news02
http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060331/NEWS07/603310
446/1009
..
By contrast, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration is a civilian government program with a limited budget that directly employs fewer than 20,000 civil servants and has lost the commanding lead it once held over the rest of the world in human space exploration.
"We have a space race going
on right now and the American people are totally unaware of all this," said Rep. Tom DeLay, the Texas Republican whose district includes Johnson Space Center near Houston.
The theme, which is not new, emerged again Thursday at a Capitol Hill hearing where lawmakers were quizzing NASA Administrator Mike Griffin about the Bush administration's budget request for the space program.
This time, though, lawmakers sounded as if they might be willing to do more than just talk about the issue.
Griffin was asked to produce
in 30 days an unclassified report to Congress containing an assessment of the Chinese space program and its goals.
Rep. Frank Wolf, R-Va., chairman of the House Appropriations subcommittee with NASA oversight, said he would hold a hearing on the subject to coincide with the report's release.
Griffin acknowledged that China's new Shenzou spaceships are capable of supporting a crew on a round-trip mission to the moon.
But their Long March rockets are not powerful enough to get them there, he said.
The United States has neither a crew vehicle nor a rocket capable of making a moon run.
The shuttle is designed for low Earth orbit only.

Mars is going to be called the Red-planet for many reasons

the 'Joss vision' of a Western/Chinese front in space ain't just some fantasy, its a lot more real than GW's vision for Mars

But plenty and to spare for spy satellites to invade the privacy of, and harrass, americans.

Not so many folk have been payin attention, but the Chinese killed a couple of our "secret" spy satellites over a period of weeks - forgive me, I have to be vague on the timeline to protect a source...

And then later gave our intel folks a couple of strong hints that anything in orbit they felt was a threat or nuisance, wouldn't BE in orbit very long.

The whole issue slid under the notice of most folk, but I am sure NRO was gnashing their teeth about it - me, I wonder about the how, we'd have spotted a missle launch, so I am thinkin HERF, directed EMP, or even guidance system hack/jamming.

Considering how easily the signals from most sats are to decrypt, I strongly suspect the latter.

NASA sucks ass anyway, ten times the money for one hundreth of the effort, as with any Gov sponsored monopoly locked in mutual embrace with the Mil-Industrial Complex.

But gorram it, SOMEBODY build me a spaceship so I can get off this rock before we blow ourselves to hell, ok ?

I was wrong about the Russians while we see how great the Soyuz was trucking payloads into orbit, supplying stations its over for them now, an invasion February 2022, Russia and then sanctions

A lot of us were unsure about Musk, some of those rockets failed but now he has stepped up and transformed the private space industry.

Eutelsat OneWeb the company is headquartered in London

Before the invasion of Ukraine the Russian Soyuz was rented, a commerical launch the Guiana Space Centre in French South America.

Now they want a Space Station around the Moon and the Crew and Science Airlock Module designed by religion nation of monarchy Arabs for some strange reason.

Is Mike Griffin right about NASA's Artemis program?

James E. Webb was often seen as the best, under Dwight D. Eisenhower NASA was young and was behind the Soviets, in more modern era the leadership of Daniel Goldin is seen as a beancounter guy who was around for a long time with few results other than some small success and lots of cutbacks.
