@TheSolitaryPoet
lol, i agree.
Where can I get a cool shirt like Larry has? preferably I want it to say ‘Larry’.
the space program is intrical part of research it won’t go forward until Obamma is gone, sooner the better
Give more money to NASA! I want to live on the moon by the end of 2020, ffs!! D:
die nasa die
why dont they just redesign the shuttles?
too much union…..not enough molly. couldn’t molly have just summed up there concerns for them?
It is not a waste of money.
good job
we need to support the space program so we can furnish bruce willis with everything he needs to blow up potential asteroid threats.
there have been redesign ideas for quite some time
It makes me real sad when I think about that I won’t be able to see a real space shuttle launch ever in my life. A disposable rocket is just not that awesome, however more efficient and cost-effective.
I LOVE YOU FOX LEMON.
What a shame. I guess funding pointless wars has become more important than funding scientific endeavors to improve everyone’s lives. Meh.
trying to make us feel sorry 4 NASA??
help the sick the moon can wait
Unbelievable Obama wants to cut back funding to NASA which keeps us technologically ahead of the rest of the world.
touching.
lol…..I remember Molly singing ‘Fox Lemons’ before she came here to the states. I have no idea who originally sang ‘Fox Lemons’ though.
0:59 NASA’s technology at its best :)
These are the “government bureaucrats” that Republicans and Ron Paul think should all lose their jobs.
@ReliableInsider No.. they aren’t.
Besides, it’s the Obama administration’s idea to cut the jobs.
There has never been a major cut to NASA personnel by a Republican administration since Reagan.
You fail at propaganda.
privatize!
Now I know why a few crash once in a while and lift offs are delayed, UNIONS
You’re saying Republicans don’t keep their promises. That just supports my point.
Republicans go on endlessly about how every meat inspector and SEC commissioner and NASA scientist is a “government bureaucrat” who should be fired.
And then they don’t do it.
They are incapable of finding waste in the federal budget.
Yet they run on it election after election after election.
Their current “cost-cutting” proposal is not to reform health care and leave 50 million Americans without insurance.
Awesome
@bennytheninja Give NASA to Chuck e Cheese
Like this nothing to do with the Bush Admin ruining the economy and then having right wingers complain like it’s the Dems fault.
It’s like a little kid taking a dump in the corner of the room, and then he blame his parents for feeding him.
Heh… ROCKETBOOM…
I lol’d
too little molly too much nasa blahblah etcetera
Great report.
BUT indeed a superb report. Really interesting, even for me.
Boo Obama.
So Cool!
Awesome video, I am also very upset over this budget cut.
Ron Paul 2012!
Now I feel sad. Great report
Heavy stuff. That many skilled jobs are a really tough thing to lose, especially considering those jobs are so intertwined with the technological advance of an entire country. But at the same time, health care is a huge issue, spending needs to be cut down, and privitization of an industry like this will only make the cost of running it go up, and the benefits will no longer be for the many, but instead be warped for the benefit of the few.
2012 Richard C. Hoagland torsion field earth rotation reversal!!!!!!!!
These are dark times for the U.S. economy and this is reflected in the U.S. space program…
Great report
@movieguystarraisin And everything else?!
aefwqe
freedom for palestine!
Bring Israeli War Criminals to Justice!
Old school rocketboom Neato. Good job folks
I was so bummed out when I heard about the budget cuts
lets put money into space exploration and R&D instead of war
wow, even i got goosebumps watching that night launch. great video!
with 15,000 male subscribers and 10$ a photo, it could really amount!!
@movieguystarraisin It’s not just the US dude, it’s the entire world.
why go to space when we still got huge issues here on this planet? the space programm just wastes money.
it’s amazing what nasa and the other space agencies have accomplished so far, no doubt!
of course space exploration doesn’t generate a lot of profit by itself, but all the technology that comes from it will benefit all mankind. this is where money should be secondary.
it’s a kind of long term investment which will pay off in one way or another.
i hope this budget cut won’t happen!
i’m sure there is a lot to optimize at nasa tho, as is at all government agencies =)
I agree, but I’d torrent them/dl them
Baw thread go!
fucking cheap jew.
because a lot of the technology that’s developed as a result of the space program makes our lives better on this planet.
short term the cuts make sense but long term those cuts don’t unless they are offset by some other kind of R&D
Rocket boom in ROCKETBOOM
A new low blow to American economy.
Very interesting. - Thank you! - I loved this one.
There was a cool pic of this on APOD
I agree with that. We spend (during peacetime) 400 billion a year on the military. They really can’t find anything else to cut?
Shame its the talent and experience that can never be replaced..
now you’re walking in my backyard. 1.) the Constellation program was going to cut jobs at the end of the shuttle era. 2.) the constellation program did not guarentee anything but spending money. 3.) the commercial sector has 3 rocket systems ready to go with modification, Atlas, Delta, Space X. 4.) while the layoff may be temporary, the majority of people workikng at the cape will be returned in one way or another. do let people lay their fear on you.
The space program generates new technology, communication, and medicine advances, just as the video said. Americas “Huge Issues” are not their own. Americans have been trying to police an unruly word by sticking their noses in foreign matters such as Civil wars in other countries, political power struggles, and pursuit of “terrorists” that in reality pose little danger to it’s hundreds of Millions of citizens.
Risk vs reward isn’t being calculated properly.
Space exploration does not happen via job programs. Every launch of the space shuttle costs roughly 1.5 BILLION dollars. Space will never open to humanity as long as there is no competition to drive costs down. I hope they all get fired, and then hired by competitive space industry like SpaceX or Bigelow or Bowing or any number of other firms. The government has had the last 40 years, it’s time for NASA to concentrate on exploration and let the private firms handle heavy lift to LEO.
This is really sad. The last of my childhood dreams is evaporating before my eyes. . .
Her eyes are beautiful, like emeralds.
PS: If her eyes aren’t green, don’t judge me; I’m colorblind.
i love molly
@falafel1995 lol
@BaronCreel Agreed.
I stopped watching when Molly was cut!
Leave it to the Feds to think that it would be prudent to “save” money by cutting funds that for every $1 investment from the Government results in $7 generated by the private sector. That $7 dollars can be taxed and pay for other Government programs, not to mention that investment helps the economy. Ironically that Union probably told its members to vote for Obama thinking he was going to help them keep their jobs. They wouldn’t be the first to have made that mistake, just ask an autowoker.
:D I saw that launch on NASA TV
Beautiful launch, a total success!!
@Keylimedelight you know i was watching something on the science channel and also saw in popsci that they are making it able to launch satelites into space for only about 16 grand….. i do realize that those are unmanned however with that and with the virgin 1 only being like 200k for a trip to space i think that we are coming to a place where the masses will eventually traveling into space.
@BigAndTall666 Well then you missed a nice launch.
because the space programm is part of the solution of most of the huge problems we have here on this planet. energy, climate change, fresh water, medicine, our understanding of the sun and the solar system and its effects on the earth’s magnetic field are extremly important, since we depend so much on electrical systems and gps, the influence of sun activity on our weather, the development of preemptive measures in case we’re on a collision course with large space objects etc etc
I want a Molly!
wtf, moar mollyy!!
Easy big fella.
Great videos guys, behind every NASA “hero” are these folks.
Always Jolly that Molly
NASA is useless. None of the experiments they perform are repeatable, transparent, or peer reviewed. As a result, any data resulting from said experiments is of little value to the scientific community (which is not faith-based, but entirely dependent on testability, repeatability, and transparency). NASA is not a legitimate scientific organization. What we need is independent corroboration from private sector space programs which openly participate in the scientific method.
go to wikipedia and read first before talking about obama administration. an average of $15.818 billion dollars per year goes to NASA projects. dose any body listen ? how much money is that ? with this money thousands of jobs can be created. only GOD knows how much any one of these VPs make a year while thousands of people are left without jobs. these people can find jobs somewhere else in the mean time they give opportunity to others to find jobs too.
That would be a sweet place to work!!!
Its amazing how many people don’t view a video when its above 3 minutes long…
The private sector is infinitely more capable of advancing technology than the government is. If the government refrained from expropriating private sector money, we would be MORE advanced (technologically), not less. It’s easy to see what the government does with money. What you don’t see is what would have been done with the money had it not been forcibly reallocated. It’s the market that drives innovation. The only thing central planners do is misallocate resources.
>:(
Another reason we’re probably halting the space program is because we don’t have now, nor did we ever have, the technology required to send humans through the Van Allen radiation belts. The reason we haven’t sent astronauts back to the moon, is because we never sent them there in the first place. We simply don’t have the technology for manned space exploration. We don’t have rockets powerful enough to launch vehicles equipped with adequate radiation shielding (i.e. six feet of lead).
Let me first say that I am a huge supporter of the space program and am an aspiring astrophysicist myself. However, many seem to misinterpret the budget and think that it will cut funding for NASA in all areas. This is not true, as the proposed budget will actually increase funding for NASA by about $6 billion overall. The controversy is over the decision to cut the Constellation program in favor of funding the more cutting edge research. That said, I don’t know where to stand…(cont)
At some point, private sector space programs will reveal this simple fact which NASA has covered up.
(cont)…on the issue. On one hand, Buzz Aldrin has come out in support of the budgetary decision, but at the same time, I have heard many good arguments that the decision to drop the moon program could be a big loss. I guess what is most important is to move forward with what we have and work to increase funding for the space program and science in general in the future.
That’s not a “NASA Update,” it’s a local union update.
Obama’s proposed NASA budget is extremely pro-space. I’ve written about it here/ If you want to see people getting to Mars in the 2030s, using new technologies that directly benefit us on Earth, then you should support the Obama administration’s space plans. If you want to get to the Moon - again - in the mid-2030s, and have NASA develop no new technology along the way, Constellation is the way to go.
D4Shawn said - “The reason we haven’t sent astronauts back to the moon, is because we never sent them there in the first place.”
~facepalm~
The advantage of Nasa leading development is that the technology that they produce end up becomming open source. Things like GPS COULD NOT BE DONE via the private sector, not without having to pay pricy subscription or licensing fees to access the service. By funneling money away from Nasa, the government is threatening our technological dominance, not supporting it, especially considering that space isn’t nearly as exclusive as it was 50 years ago.
I can lend NASA my UFO. It’s got hundreds of billion of light years on it, but this baby can still get you across the Milky Way galaxy in a flash. Yes, we are out there.
That was well done. I almost forgot I was on youtube. Kinda thought this was something from the Discovery Channel or TLC
All union… no wonder it’s so expensive. A auto union member averages $70 / hour which includes all benefits… These guys likely average way more than that. Dump the whole NASA program.
I was at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex on March 11, 2008 and is saw Space Shuttle Endeavor STS-123 launch. It was breathtaking. I’m so glad I saw one go up before they discontinue it.
my uncle works at NASA he helps build the space ships, in Florida though

The “loss of talents and skills” ( 3:56 ) aren’t lost at all, they’re shifted for use in the private sector, where they can be used more efficiently.
Boo
Awesome! I have never seen a space shuttle launch video in HD before. Awesome video!
Dear Molly RocketBoobs,
Why should ANYONE give a flying fuck about NASA?
Seriously, what BENEFIT has NASA done for anyone, anywhere, any time, ever?
(Communications satelites, notwithstanding, of course.)
What about the rest of us stuck here on the planet?!
I mean, going to the moon, or mars? What for?
Human beings CAN NOT live in the vacuum of space! Period.
Even if they could, who wants to? Do you?
that was simply amazing you did a great job with this one :)
No way we should dump nasa! Humanities future and survival relies on our space programs. So many technological advancements have come from space exploration!
really?nasa is the cause of all the tech in my home?and here i thought it was china.
That was so beautiful. I wish I could have seen that in person. Poor NASA…….. :(
first
i think it’s in term of invention, not production
It is weird having molly talk about anything intelligent. I thought that was Ella’s job.
yea i bet those firefighters get a lot of work…
The army of people that has to be kept employed, whether the shuttle is busy or not, is WHY the shuttle is so expensive. The space program needs to be more cost efficient to move forward- we’ve been stalled at the space shuttle for 30 years, because it’s so expensive we can’t do anything else.
GPS was developed by the Air Force. ALL NASA launch vehicles except for the Saturn and the Shuttle are borrowed Air Force technology.
When i was little, i wanted to be an astronaut.
great watch. The unsung heroes.
Who didn’t? I know I did
It makes me glad I didn’t vote for Obama. Fuck that guy. I don’t care if it isn’t his fault, I need a scapegoat.
“Forget about that space stuff let get down to earth”
@ASlewOfTheBallTether designed by nasa, made in china.
VIVA LA NASA
Let’s go back to the MOON baby!
It’s sad to say that the Mars Rovers have done more to give the average person a window on Mars than the manned space program which is still stuck in Earth orbit.
Molly TIG ol BITTIES!
Privatize NASA.
Molly your HOT!!! I love you!!!
very inspirational i hope we don’t cut funding
Really insightful video Rocketboom. Thanks. Those images of the rocket taking off at night were amazing.
Take all that money that we spend on weapons and defence each year, and instead spend it feeding, clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, for ever, in peace.
Bill Hicks
…aren’t these nothing more then a cultural luxury? inst the money spent on observing stars and making rockets supposed to go to medical reform or job creation programs or even police force or fire fighting forces? you know, stuff that help people live decent lives instead of just throwing metal into sky?
@WiseZed Space travel does have flow on effects that make our lives better and cheaper…..which is helpful for people with low incomes. I agree that it gets too high a priority at the moment, but it does have it’s place and shouldn’t just be shut down.
The picture in 1:38, is it me or did I see a skull face thing at the bottom left of the smoke?
It won’t be a cultural luxury once overpopulation or natural resource depletion begin to occur in earnest. And by then it’d be too late to get on it. Not only that, but many things learned through the space program have huge potential uses here on earth.
Personally, I think it’s important for the dream… The dream of more out there beyond ourselves. Is it a cultural luxury? Sure. But it’s one we CAN afford. And in reality, slashing the NASA budget isn’t going to fix any of those problems.
Obama is a total ass hole, its amazing he cut funding for NASA, Will never vote for him again.
I think it is a community Luxury, however whoever is really responsible for cutting the budget, is probably NOT doing it to be an ass…. So i trust that it is in the countries best interest…. finally, maybe its a good thing that NASA is being cut down, I mean, its GREAT that NASA is doing well in America, however here in Australia, we don’t have a space program…. Space exploration started with little clubs, and soon, it will be lots of small business, which is good in the name of progress
Last of all, if you look at ALL the media things that make space look appealing, such as sci-fi and the dream of being in space, it all requires that NASA were to fade slowly…. NOW on all this, i personally have nothing againsnt NASA, and love what there doing, however, im one who beleaves that things happen for a reason. Lastly, if you all wanna help NASA, we could do a world wide partition and donation… wouldn’t that be something
A vote for anyone other than Obama (Including the Independents) is a direct vote for the Republicunts.
Sorry, but that’s just how a 2 party system works…..
i dont wanna sound rude but they seem dispensible
thank you rocketboom!… I’m a biologist in FLA USA and got the bad news yesterday that I’m out of work in April… wake up America!
hey, sun look alike at 6:02. man, it brings back the memory i had. sorry for the losses of many jobs at NASA.
Love*Lights to you all
Such a shame, the new frontier forsaken. I want to cry.
It’s his master the devil my friend, and you’ve found him out. Now u r doomed. :P
This one was very well made.
Well the budget cut would be an extremely bad idea if the funds taken away were given to support euthenasia, abortion and birth control.
I just can’t understand the priorities of this administration. This is the worst bait-and-switch ever.
Dr. Sagan knew, the ultimate destiny of humankind rests on our commitment to space travel.
@FluffyBunniesOnFire Yeah, GTFO Afg and Irq and put all of those billions into space travel.
So NASA should go the same expensive and non productive way to the moon and mars, so these guys can have jobs?
I don’t think the budget issue is as bad as the video suggests. NASA is hardly being abandoned, they’re just shifting focus from using old technology (putting up satellites, etc) to developing new technology and allowing the private sector to adopt the older generations of rocket technology. There are tons of communications companies that want to get satellites into orbit, and I expect there will be some new startups that can fill the void left by NASA and give these guys jobs.
@WiseZed
people like you are the reason we still aren’t on mars
@mrmaciejm: Non-productive? There are many practical benefits to the space program, some of which were mentioned in this video, even if you don’t care about the exploration at all. In the video, it was mentioned that every dollar invested in the space program generates SEVEN dollars in private industry. Also, many technologies that we use every day were originally developed for the space program. There is a lot more than these thousands of jobs at stake.
By non-productive i mean… that they will not take us to the moon or mars efficiently. Didn’t produce any results and if you listen to associated press meeting and any one that knows anything, constellation program was a failure. NON PRODUCTIVE. of course if you put money in something you will get jobs and some technology, but let me remind you that NASA will use Soyuz space craft to get astronauts to space…
I wish I knew that was that last one, I would have went. Space travel was a big part of American culture and history it’s a shame that Obama can’t see that. Oh well just another reason for me to say I DIDN’T VOTE FOR HIM!
President Kennedy said “Im not that interested in space … were talking about these fantastic expenditures which wreck our budget and all these other domestic programs and the only justification for it, in my opinion, to do it in this time or fashion, is because we hope to beat them… [soviets].” If so much money wasn’t spent on going to the moon, then we could be much more clear-headed about the ethics of this. Had we not gone to the moon, then these poor workers wouldn’t have this problem.
@flobber238 Had you not gone to the moon, we wouldn’t have numerous of inventions available to the public now. Besides, you want to be ready for it once we need to leave this planet.
No, let’s talk about the rediculous amounts of money America is pumping into the wars they’ve been searching out ever since the existence of the nation. All of America could be living in wealth if it weren’t for those spendings.
@Bushdoctor68
On your note about inventions coming out of space programs, my response is-
Why not put the money straight into those technologies, istead of hoping that advances will be made by NASA? It seems a very inefficient way of advancing technology if most of the money spent on unportable technology.
On the other hand, we’re here now, so there’s no point in looking back. Is this decision being made because the Administration sees it as inevitable that NASA must be cut back?
Budget cuts? Don’t you mean cancellation of manned spaceflight?
Everyone seems to want to defend this move as something great for Amercia - We are ending manned spaceflight in this country. I want people to understand that.
What is Obama’s priority? A health-care system nobody wants, or scientific breakthroughs that could alter the course of history?
ahh stop crying these guys wont have a problem getting jobs for christ sake they work at nasa. i think they should create new jobs for “Joe the plumber” and then worry about these guys.
As far as I can remember “Joe the Plumber” was about to buy his own firm. At least as soon as he would fix his sorry tax cases with the IRS, about which he made no mention when confronted Obama.
don’t they know that were like at the hight if space expoloration why stop such great researche
So you rather have a galactic war against powers we don’t know of than have health-care.. hm.. Nice prioritys :)
I like ROCKETBOOM very much but I feel its too American. Just it would be nice to hear about how China wanting to go to the moon and outer country space programs.
All the best SnazzBot
@matthias720
My sister had a 60 degree scoleosis angle in her back. That’s severe. She underwent surgery and her back is almost straight now. It would’ve costed an average ensured american 10,000 dollars. It costed us 800, thanks to our ’socialist’ health care system. <3
When will Nasa Stop using 40year old tech and develop something modern. it is possible just loook at the Spaceship one
good point. if we meet aliens with advanced tech, they could heal us instead of trying to fix healthcare.
thats not up to nasa to decide
i like the candle in the sky metaphor. nice touch.
Did I talk about NASA? I spoke of matthias comment.. stoopid..
I understand that if it weren’t for NASA technology, the Steve Jobs doll could never have been created.
@torhagen they dont get the funding they need….thats what this video is about
@NASA Quit crying, babies.
B************bs…
if obama gets his way, plans to go to the moon and eventually mars will be canned. how sad.
That’s great that the health-care system helped you, really, but someone like me who rarely ever needs to go to a doctor doesn’t need that kind of financial burden.
I’ve been there :D
oops..i must have been pretty tired
@N3cr0n0mIV 3 YEARS HE WILL BE GONE
Nice vid Rocketboom team.
The worst part is that the unions asked their members to vote for Obama, because he was the best thing for the unions. He suported a union nation were if more then 50% of a work place voted to be unionized the Gov would made them sign a contract. Good call on that one thanks UFCW atleased with the other party we knew we were fubar.
the amount of money that nasa wants to spend to return to the moon, can send more then 50 rovers. Which can do more then any two humans can and for a much longer period.
i just think its sad that wed rather spend more money on the middle east and the war on drugs than actually go exploring for knowledge, whether it be in space or our own oceans, which we know hardly anything about…
>> N3cr0n0mIV
That’s silly. Just because he budget cuts NASA, doesn’t mean he disregards them. Ofcourse there are much worse problems with budget cutting(loss of jobs, etc) than setting off a few years for Astronomic exploration if he does infact take enough money out of funding to actually suspend NASA and their affiliates/research. I don’t think he would do it on purpose.
not enough molly, one star
Aw man, we have to go back to the moon … there’s something so sentimental and wholesome about space travel. Make it happen Obama (fat chance)
yeah, why care about others?
people like you are the reason why there is so much misery on our planet.
Why two thumbs down for posting NASA stands for Never A Straight Answer?
You have glorified a tin-can front designed to keep you distracted from the real secret space program that drains your tax dollars into space defense tech and was/is run by Nazis (see: Project Paperclip) Masons, and Satanists.
Type in “Richard C. Hoagland”, “Dark Mission”, “Project Paperclip” and “Gary McKinnon” in the Youtube search engine and see what pops up. You won’t be so sentimental for NASA after that.
So immature, those videos didn’t even have anything to do with NASA, you’re just jealous because you’re too fat and stupid to be an Astronaut LOL! Grow up
yes
They can’t cut NASA’s budget! Where else will nerds get UFO pics and footage from?
Wow i can’t believe that Ron Paul fans are also Rocketboom viewers!
We’ve been to the Moon. We NEED TO GO MARS!
Mars is where we should be going. Why should we go back to the Moon when we could visit the one place that we haven’t gone yet?
You know, there are those who say that the moon landing was fake. We can’t say for 100% certainty that we have been there
yes we can.
theres just idiots out there that don’t think we have
You can see the remains of the lander from earth (with the proper telescope). Yes, there’s proof.
Heard of hoaxes? They tend to be (brace youself) not the truth. Odd, huh?
@TwoThirdsMajority
woohoo go Ron Paul and Rocketboom
Man, I fucking love space and the universe… shit’s interesting.
Shame on Obama for no more funding… :[
Sorry space people! You’re too expensive!
I didn’t want to do this, but…..YOU’RE FIRED!!!!
arseholes.
obama wants to cut their funding?, what a TOOL!!!, there goes my dream of having my own planet “in the future”!!!
Whatever, in a bad economy I imagine that the first thing you look at is how to reduce the the budget of the space programme. I think it makes sense. It’s a shame but it’s not exactly the most recession-proof line of work.
Hahaha
wow… i apologize for caring about our current realistic issues more then achievements…
yes, thats where all the good medical technology is. i believe the cure for cancer and aids is there as well?
tasteless.
maybe you’re right we have to get rid of religion and world hunger and such first
The USA never goes to the moon… never it’s was a biggest fake liar
What is the hoax you are referring to? I can assure you what I was talking about is no hoax. It’s easy to find factual government documentation/wide variety of legitimate source work very quickly about what I was referring to.
However, if you were referring to the less than civil replies from the twenty-something who called me “fat and stupid” as his reply, you know, the one who most likely still lives in his parent’s basement, be my guest. :-)
The secret space program as been going to Mars for quite a while. You are being kept from all kinds of information that NASA wants you to think is quite pedestrian about space, but in reality, Naval Intel, the NSA, CIA, etc, are using your tax dollars for advanced tech thousands of years ahead of mainstream science to fund a secret space program for who knows what. And YES, it most certainly has to do with deep space travel, including time travel, wormholes/stargates/time portals etc.
I can understand budget cuts during difficult economic times. I can appreciate budget cuts in general when health, education and retirement support can’t be afforded. But it is going to be so sad to be outsourcing space launches to China and India… not to mention a major security issue.
thank you mister barry soetoro for cutting into NASA but continuing to fund welfare . crack babies being born at a rate to rival litters of cats and chihuahuas!!!!
Hi Molly, any chance you could do the next rocketboom in a bikini? Thanks.
SHOW US THE ALIENS DAMNIT! WE KNOW YOU HAVE THEM!
But seriously I appreciate videos like this. ROCKETBOOM does stuff no one else touches.
NASA Employees get paid in crack.

lol
The US will be remembered far longer for NASA than any other thing we’ve done. Millennia from now we will be remembered for the moon landing, but no one will remember the Iraq war for anything except the big fat mistake it was. With all the money we throw away on the military-industrial complex we could be terraforming Venus and Mars. We could have bases on the moon. We could be sending seed civilization probes into interstellar space. But I guess we’d rather stay here and fight each other.
That would make space pizza so much more fun
@liketanyanot
No no, you have it all wrong. Mars is inhabited by aliens related to birds whom we are at war with, we would never go there (Hitler was actually a falcon but the EPA covered it up.) The money is actually being used as a food source (they feed on anything considered ‘valuable’) for hyper intelligent beings who time traveled here from the past (right before the eagle named Satan started the second Armageddon.)
Cool, I can make stuff up too!
not making it up, if you are too arrogant to simply do a 30 second Google search for *factual* information, then that’s your problem, not mine. Apparently ignorance truly is bliss around these parts. Good luck with everything!

The secret space program already exists, its already on Mars and it already has contempt for you, me, and any “civilian” who thinks that your tax dollars are all going to fill in potholes. Biggest hoax that ever was. It IS the military industrial complex already doing this. Space Command is run by Navy Intel, look it up, I am not making this up– and no, not all the tech comes from this planet. Just sayin’.
@liketanyanot
Don’t make me laugh, Google was created by the EPA to generate money to bribe alien warlords on Pluto. Google would never allow the truth to be known!!! Organizations like the disclosure project are simply used by the hyper intelligent beings or (HIBs) as another way to hide and blur the truth.
Does it not bother you how that site tries to sell you all of this stuff?

The US gives to NASA 1 to 10% of what they give to the US Army. And their seriously thinking about Cutting the NASA funds? Really….i mean really? that fact was before they went to Iraq btw…so i dont know wath percentage it would be today, but it is low. yet, some fucking oil is more important then discovering wath the universe is about…im ashamed of humanity.
Actually Obama did not cut NASA funding - he INCREASED it.
Stop watching FOX news
@3:38 >”Obama administration cut and completely underfund the new constellation program.”
He talks as if that’s something new, the constellation program was always underfunded from the beginning, Bush never bothered to fund it properly. Obama just finally put it outof it’s misery so NASA could concentrate on realistic projects.
Click click boom.
rather dry report & somewhat misleading allowing nasa talking head to say nasa’s work has touched everything in our homes. the nasa talking head specifically cites television which was invented decades before nasa’s founding. tv is credited to philo farnsworth and was developed by the radio industry not nasa, which was founded after the russians launched sputnik in 1957. if you’re going to do a story try and be more accurate and edit out what’s false.
What about this moon base josh bush talked about ? Fox news told me that Obama stopped that program
