"No More 'Right Stuf' ?"

"The Obama administration announced plans in February 2010 to cancel the "Constellation" program, the goal of which was to return Americans to the Moon, Mars and beyond. Two months later, he presented a new space policy, which he said would "increase NASA's budget by $6 billion over the next five years ... increase Earth-based observation to improve our understanding of our climate and our world ... and extend the life of the International Space Station..." As to space exploration, Nobody is more committed to manned space flight, to human exploration of space than I am," he said.

That remains to be seen."
