I think it will be basically, this is my plan for NASA and Hubble doesn’t fit into it so if you want it find money from somewhere else. Maybe Sen. Mikulski and Congressmen Hoyer can pass something akin to California’s stem cell research and raise the money locally.

NASA provides a lot of free services to academic intuitions, government agencies, public sector and private companies, so you would think that maybe they would pitch in to support a mission. This isn’t reality just a dream.

What is the difference between subsidies and bankruptcy bail-out money? One is short term and the other is long term? I guess subsides are usually aimed at an industry rather than and individual company.

It is not about the science any longer. Neither is the Doo Doo bird attempting to soar again to Albatross and back. Ya gotta love this nation, but utilitarianism is does have a dark side – of course so does the moon, but it will be decades before an American sees that again.
