President Obama, like his predecessor President Bush, has tried to continue funding space exploration; but President Obama has had to deal with budget cuts due to the economy. Rather than sending astronauts back to the moon (where we have already been), Mr. Obama is asking NASA to focus on a trip to Mars, and that is what NASA is planning at this time. Reports that Mr. Obama has eliminated NASA or tried to thwart space exploration are false.
