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. |
