Well, NASA as presently constituted will be hard-pressed to proceed with
Bush's Vision for Space Exploration and still maintain the current science
programs -- even with their expanded budgets of the past two years.

Mission to Planet Earth has produced a lot of valuable environmental data,
much of which still has to be analyzed. Let's hope some other agency can pick
up that task.

But for NASA, it looks like the word is: Up with VSE, Out with MPE.
