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.
Who pays travel expenses for Obama's family when they travel?
All modern presidents and first ladies have a travel budget, which does get paid by the taxpayers, especially when the president and/or his wife are on state business-- that is, when they are representing the United States for a trade or diplomatic mission; secret service protection is also taxpayer funded. But there are some expenses that come out of the president's own salary: if Mr. Obama (or any president) is on vacation, he pays for his own and his family's lodging, their food and any incidentals (like going to a bookstore to buy something to read)-- the taxpayers generally are not expected to pay for these things. In the case of a diplomatic trip, like the recent visit to Cuba, the taxpayers were not expected to pay for the Obama kids-- Mr. and Mrs. Obama handled those expenses.
