It remains to be seen if the OSP will result in hardware or just another waste of money with no results like the X-33, X-38, HL-20, NASP. Does that promote science? Hard earned tax dollars? NASA's budget is an utterly insignificant amount of the budget, which at any rate is prognosed to have a $455 billion deficit this year. So instead of as 'hard earned tax dollars' you should say 'a small amount of spare that dropped out of the budget, both taxed and borrowed'. I am talking about the AMERICAN people's hard earned tax dollars. Over my workng lifetime of 30+ years I have contributed thousands tax dollars to NASA, as have all other working Americans. That works out to hundreds of hours of my time that I have worked had the money was taken from me and given to NASA. Since 1958 it adds up to over $ 500-Billion dollars of hard working AMERICAN's money. I expect that money to be spent wisely. It has not been in many cases. Your e-mail address is from Estonia. How many tax dollars have you contributed to NASA? How much of your personal labor has been taxed and used to pay for a NASA space project? When you have contributed 1-cent towrard NASA, maybe I will value your opinion. Until then, you are just full of hot air. -- Rusty Barton - Antelope, California |
