Landsat-interruption?
Tuesday, March 28, 2006 at 8:06PM I was reading this article today that my 92 year old grandma saved for me, in El Nuevo Herald (its in Spanish) -March 16th. It discussed how the Bush administration has cut funding for NASA and its corresponding satellites, such as Landsat. EOS stated that Landsat is in risk of interruption. Has anyone else run across articles discussing this? Also, I agree with Abe that google instant messenger would be a good idea.

Here's an regarding pretty much the same thing. Basically NASA is more strapped for cash than in the past, and the current administration wants to emphasize human space exploration over science missions. This is troublesome for scifi geeks like me. Of course we want to see the basic science done, and it's in unmanned science missions that NASA has had the greatest success of late. On the other hand, I want to go to Mars.
Also, you can find Abe, Brent, and me on Google Talk already! I'm kenichi.ueda@gmail.com.
