Congress to Keep Funding NASA's Webb Telescope
Congress to Keep Funding NASA's Webb Telescope
http://news.sciencemag.org/sciencein...g-nasas-w.html Congress appears to have preserved funding for the James Webb Space Telescope. Last night lawmakers from both the House of Representatives and the Senate issued a final spending bill for NASA and several other federal agencies that "accommodates cost growth" for the $8.7 billion telescope. Details are expected later today. But that language is seen as affirming the Senate's support for the embattled telescope after the House has eliminated its funding. |

Though it is highly unlikely that Dubya could even spell "telescope" much less say it out loud - far too many syllables. -- Regards, Martin Brown |

Obama sure is stupid for a man who has convinced the credulous that he is smart. I recommend reading his first book, it's window into his mediocrity. |

Mediocrity has to be a step up from total brain dead moron which is what the current front runners of the GOP Presidential candidates stand for. One can't even remember his three most important policies (to be fair he did manage two) and the other could not work out what Libya was. -- Regards, Martin Brown |
