Title: So Ted Cruz is chairing the committee overseeing NASA
Post by: Rage Against the McKee on January 13, 2015, 10:33:50 AM
I bet he keeps those "so called experts" in check.

Makes sense with NASA in Houston.  One of these days he is going to peeve Obama or MOOOchelle and launch them into orbit.  Biden is a dud and he would just flop around on the ground if he's ticked off.  Also I would not be suprised if Cruz is an alien.

Remember when we had Americans walking on the moon? I don't either. It would be neat to do cool stuff like that again, instead of paying billions to launch Americans on Russian rockets into LEO to study "global warming."

SpaceX, though.  Private industry is taking care of that now, you lib.

I think we're a long way off from interplanatery travel being commercially viable. I want cool stuff now. I'd rather the government spend more money on that than, say, food stamps.

SpaceX is working on Mars right now.  Also, they just tested a method of saving the first stage portion of a rocket to cut costs through repeat use.  The test failed, but was pretty close to succeeding.  Supposedly, that will cut $55M per rocket launch. 

These are the guys who will get you what you want and when you want it.  Maybe subsidize the living crap out of them?

Sounds like Ted has the right idea for NASA.

In his statement, which was titled "Focus NASA on Its Core Mission: Exploring Space, and More of It," Cruz said he wants to expand the US space program.

Due to his conservative positions on budgeting and climate change, some observers speculated Cruz would attempt to cut funding to NASA in his new role. However, in his statement Cruz repeatedly insisted he wants to expand America's space-exploration efforts.

Awesome. But I hope Cruz realizes we also have to pay for it. I wish he had said something along the lines of "We need to get back to doing more 'America - eff Yeah' things and spending less money on dumb crap like studying global warming and doling out food stamps."

NASA has been used as a pawn in the government's global warming power and money grab. I think he just wants to get them back on the exploration track.

Letting people starve on earth while paying billions for trial and error doesn't seem like the right thing to do.

A balanced approach will do, and heck you could probably increase both if we got out of a country or two.

I think it is because the data from space might be showing more heat entering earth than leaving, while our thermometers here planetside are showing ice cold temps, thus disproving greenhouse gas theory as well as all of that first law of thermodynamics hullabaloo.
