More on Obama's plans for NASA

There's a good article here from National Review... as the sub-title says: "Regarding space exploration, the Obama administration fails to dream big". I think that really says it all. I hope the commercial providers can step up the plate and change the game. I think there's a real chance that could happen, but if they don't have a mission, and I only see vague generalities on that score, then what's the point?

There's a rather different take here pointing out that the Obama plan provides more goodies for western states.
