Rudy Giuliani wrapped up his space policy roundtable Friday afternoon on Florida’s Space Coast with this goal, according to the AP: to “narrow and possibly even eliminate” the shuttle-Constellation gap. “A strong NASA and a revitalized space program will be a priority for a Giuliani Administration from day one,” he said, calling the gap “not […] At the end of a blog post about a new campaign ad, the New York Times reports that Rudy Giuliani will be holding a “space policy roundtable” Friday in Cape Canaveral. No other details about the event are provided, and the campaign web site doesn’t have any information yet about the event. (Presumably it will […] The interest in space in the upcoming CNN/Politico debates does not appear to be a fluke—at least not yet. Among the most popular Republican questions, space policy questions occupy four of the top seven spots, and six of the top 15. On the Democratic side it’s even stronger: nine of the top ten most popular […] For a pair of late January debates, one Republican and one Democratic, Politico.com is not only soliciting questions, but allowing people to vote on their favorites. Space is doing remarkably well as of early Tuesday morning: for the Democrats a question about the candidates’ support for the Vision for Space Exploration (filed under the category […] SpaceRef has posted “Barack Obama’s Plan For American Leadership in Space”, a document detailing the Democratic presidential candidate’s stand on space policy.

I want to task NASA with moving particularly in the area of […] This week’s issue of the science journal Nature reviews the various candidates’ views on science issues, including space, summarized in a single table or a text version. These capsule summaries don’t provide many new insights for readers here, although you may learn that Democratic candidate Joe Biden “wants to make China a full partner in […] The Barack Obama campaign has been quiet about its space policy plans since the release of its education policy in November, which called for delaying the Constellation program for five years to help pay for its education initiatives. I contacted the campaign last month to seek clarification and heard nothing back. However, a reader in […] Are the key participants in the national space policy debate, and the tools they use, undergoing change? That’s at the core of an article by Kathleen Connell in this week’s issue of The Space Review.
