Perhaps bringing back a few of those physics and science smart Zionist/
Nazis could prove effective. They'd certainly be a touch old, but
could overview and teach others as to what does and what doesn't work.

ARPA DARPA NASA+USAF could turn things around.

Offer a $1M/box (no questions asked) bounty for those 700 missing
Apollo boxes of mission data might also get that part of their job
done.

However, if China is smart (which they are), we're screwed.

I've said many times, it's the Chinese that's driving our space policy now
and right into the hands of the Pentagon.

Obama Moves to Counter China With Pentagon-NASA Link
Demian Mclean - Fri Jan 2, 3:58 pm ET

(Excerpts)

Obama's transition team is considering a collaboration between
the Defense Department and the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration because military rockets may be cheaper and ready
sooner than the space agency's planned launch vehicle, which isn't
slated to fly until 2015, according to people who've discussed the
idea with the Obama team.

Obama has said the Pentagon's space program -- which spent
about $22 billion in fiscal year 2008, almost a third more than
NASA's budget -- could be tapped to speed the civilian agency
toward its goals as the recession pressures federal
spending.

The potential change comes as Pentagon concerns are rising
over China's space ambitions because of what is perceived as an
eventual threat to U.S. defense satellites, the lofty battlefield eyes
of the military.

To boost cooperation between NASA and the Pentagon, Obama
has promised to revive the National Aeronautics and Space Council,
which oversaw the entire space arena for four presidents, most
actively from 1958 to 1973.
