NASA's total budget in 2009 was roughly 1/2 of 1 percent of the federal budget.
Just like every other item in the federal budget, some people like it, and others
don't.
no
Yes, to further the exploration of space, and medical research.
The budget has been drastically reduced. The US people and government believe that the money could be better spent elsewhere.
During the race to the moon, the government spent massive amounts on space exploration. Today, it is no longer a government priority, so funding for space exploration has decreased. Yet, NASA continues to work on new projects. Currently, however, space exploration is moving further toward the private sector. Companies like Space-X will soon dominate space exploration, and companies that make money expand rapidly.
There are many people that believe that space exploration is a misuse of money. These people feel that the money could be better used for medicine for example.
There are people that are for space exploration because there might be life on other planets somewhere. Other people are against it because they feel the money can be spent somewhere else.
well, you waste money on exploring it. = D
Neither, spend more money on real health care for people. People are more important than any of those explorations.
space exploration is likely to be mere a total wastage of time and so money.
Space exploration isnt a good idea because we are using all the money to send people to space and to build rockets when we could us it to help africa and other countries and pay for supplies.
Ocean Eploration
yes
