Dear 'Cyber-friends,' Obama stated that he would increase NASA's budget by 6 billion over 5 years. He reduced NASA's budget by 2 and 1/2 billion in fiscal 2010, therefore, the increase is a paltry 3 1/2 billion.

He wants to shift NASA focus from space to 'hockey stick' pseudo-science. It's political

science not climatology. New U.N. term: Climate and endangered species. U.N. keeps

changing term every time public wakes up, sees how bogus it is and no longer

supports it. Global Warming to Climate Change to Climate and Species. 'Hockey'

sticks," fudged data, cattle farts, suppressed data during peer review and "Al Gore'

placing sensors near heat-generating sources.

A few months ago,T. "Bones" Pickens (who ran PSAs in 2008 encouraged using all sources of domestic energy; oil magnate was willing to put his money where his mouth was stating that he would built wind-generating power plants across a whole state) abandoned solar/'wind after study proved it to be impractical. Hypocrite? No, smart business. Main-stream liberal media didn't cover his revelation We

need oil and/or natural gas from under water and/or on land and nuclear fission leading

to fusion. NASA could help in that regard with developing nuclear fusion and nuclear thermal propulsion and power-generators as part of CONSTELLATION/SATURN S-N COMBO.Would You rather purchase oil from countries that support terrorists and

whose environmental and safety standards are lower then U.S. and England. Obama

plan will result in energy bills quadrupling over next ten years. Energy Independence

should be our goal.

I'm with Hero Neil Armstrong: build on existing technology, as well as, create new

technology - and that's what CONSTELLATION does - Big Time.

OBAMA'S PHANTOM SPACE PROGRAM

by Richard DePersio, groups.google.com/group/rickcosmos-eclectic

Far more then a white lie. Obama promises a heavy-lifter by 2015 which will

lead to manned missions to asteroids, Mars and the moons of Mars beginning

in 2025. No stated purpose for heavy-lifter between those years. It is

impossible to built a heavy-lifter in five years, especially, when he is laying-off virtually all Shuttle and Constellation administrators, managers, scientists, engineers and technicians for they

are the ones with the expertise in heavy-lifting and manned spaceflight. Proof that he isn't seriously committed to deep space exploration. Constellation's

Ares heavy-lifter will be operational in 2017 - two years behind schedule and work began on it in 2005 and if we prevent

Constellation from being cancelled. It was to be used in moon mission in 2020 under Bush Plan.

1.25 trillion went down a presidential black hole in two failed stimulus packages

and Freddie and Fannie are sink holes. We've invested $9 billion in Constellation.

Will that go down self-same presidential black hole!?! It is the reason that we could

have a heavy-lifter by 2017 not 2015 by starting from scratch! Presidents Kennedy,

Johnson, Nixon, Reagan and Bush - chronologically and literally - in that order were

strongly committed to NASA and Bush to large-scale commercial investment in

space programs of their own. Obama wants to shift NASA's focus from space to

green pseudo-science.

Recently, private sector SpaceX reached an altitude of 135 miles after three failed

attempts with a 'dummy' capsule. It claims that it will be ready to bring cargo to ISS

in early 2012 and astronauts in early 2014. It doesn't even posses blueprints for a

spacecraft and this is 2010! It recently informed fed gov that it requires an additional

$1 billion- cost over-run- to reach an the altitude of 185 miles - location of ISS - and lift 55,000 pounds like Space Shuttle. NASA wasn't cost-effective prior to 1993 but

shuttles were upgraded between 1993-97 and became over 90% cost-effective and

each of the three shuttles are certified for over 75 more flights. SpaceX also

indicated that it might have to limit it to 25,000 pounds - we will have to pay them to

do in two flights what the shuttle can do in one!

Unlike the president, we're Capitalists and realists. SpaceX should be granted

more time to do it right - effectively, efficiently and SAFELY! Extend the lifespan

of the shuttle for two to four - no more in order to be on the safe side.

ORIGINAL PROPOSAL: NASA/Boeing have blueprints for a mini-Orion (not

the one without blueprints which Obama proposed and which starts from scratch) but it was cancelled during R & D

phase (NASA s criticized for not completing ISS on schedule, it would have if it had mini-Orion), resurrect it and it should be operational in 2 to 2 and a half years and be

able to lift over 25,000 pounds to ISS. PREVIOUS ORIGINAL PROPOSAL: Civilian

version of unmanned X-37B should be operational in less then two years (let's call

it "CONSTITUTION" when it becomes operational in order to drive liberals crazy!) and

manned version in 4 years or less (if estimates on the Air Force 'secret' program are

in the ball park).

What about SpaceX's Falcon 9? Give it 3 to 4 years to begin cargo flights on a

limited basis and 5 to 6 years for limited number of manned flights. It should assume

nearly full control and responsibility (with NASA's watchful eye - eye opened

wider on manned missions) by 2015 and virtual autonomy by 2017. Further, it should

immediately begin working with NASA and Boeing, as well as, NASA and Air Force

(recent directive allows for greater cooperation between NASA and military). Mini-Orion

should become Boeing/SpaceX project and unmanned and manned Constitutions

SpaceX programs (We spoke about NASA and Air Force using a different version in

original proposal concerning GPS previously).

The astronautic-ally-challenged think that Constellation represents a step backward

by using Apollo/Saturn and Shuttle technologies and not cutting-edge technology.

Point One: it isn't using but building on those successful technologies which is smart

and cost-effective. Point two: Cutting-edge - how's this for you: 'artificial' gravity; solar

power-generation (that should please 'hockey sticks'); ion rocket engine; nuclear fusion

reactor (recently, the first fission power plant opened up since Three-Mile-Island. How sad.

We have had the technology to build much safer fission plants for over 15 years but

liberals wouldn't allow it - they love American energy dependence. It is estimated that

we can have even safer, less costly and -for cattle farters- non-greenhouse gas-producing

fusion plants between 2030-35. NASA and Constellation can accelerate process toward

energy independence by enabling us o have fusion a lot sooner).

Neil Armstrong and many other prominent people oppose Obama space plan

and suspect that he giving up America's number one position in space - pure science

and all the benefits - - NASA in your home, car, office, farm, factory, hospital. SAVE
CONSTELLATION - find plan at: rickscisite.blogspot.com and more info at that website

and his website in order to prepare for battle! Don't let NASA fade to black.

DATELINE: New York and Florida; 10:OO P.M. eastern

It isn't a little white lie but an astronomically-sized one. Obama claims that

he wants an ambitious program of manned exploration of the solar system

while shifting NASA focus from space to green pseudo-science. He contends

that he wants a heavy-lifter to replace Shuttle in five years. The first goal

isn't achievable for he is laying-off virtually all of the Shuttle

and Constellation Teams of administrators, managers, scientists, engineers,

technicians.The second isn't attainable in five years even if he weren't kicking

great teams out of the space hatch door. He is telling you that he can do it

in five years starting from scratch with a new team! And, the $ 9 billion spent

on Constellation will go down a presidential black hole! He is destroying our pride

and joy and our number one position in space science and technology with

all the economic ramifications thereof with an Obama ray gun!

Citizen Reporter: "How does it look for Shuttle. Is it on death bed?'

Senator's Aide: Bi-partisan support for extending program for two years but

a majority of Congress doesn't seem to be behind it yet."

CR: "What does Senator mean toward end of letter on SpaceRef (posted below)-

a bit legalese. Does he want to start from sratch?"

SA: "Senator doesn't. Assets include: Shuttle and Constellation teams remaining;

R & D facilities built for Constellation should continue to be used; contracts with

same companies; Two components under-development in Constellation- Ares 1 & 5

heavy-lifter and Orion - shouldn't be abandoned - - their data, R & D, facilities- but

we should determine where it may be applicable in the design of a new heavy-lifter

as per president's request."

CR: "Keeping teams and some of the technologies of Apollo, Shuttle and Constellation."

SA: "If they can be used as is or modified in new heavy-lifter and manned program."

We still want our fresh, new original proposals considered: a cutting edge version

of the Saturn S-N (planned for late 1970's but cancelled; mini-Orion that NASA and

Boeing were once developing but cancelled; modified civilian versions of 'secret'

Air Force X-37B unmanned and manned models. We have suggested concepts to

two senators thus far. Good start but we want more. There is nothing wrong with Ares 1 & 5 as is.We are willing to compromise: extend life of shuttle for 2 to 4 years depending

on SpaceX progress. 'Cyber-friends,' we must stick together: Continue to phone or leave messages at websites of 9 members of congress listed below. We want most of Constellation saved (we will no long demand all; we must be willing to compromise).

Hello sir,

We just spoke on the telephone, I'm Max from Sen. Nelson's office. I did a little poking around on the internet and found, I hope, some information that will be helpful to you. The Ares project is the next generation of NASA heavy lifters, and will take over for the heavy lifting capabilities of the Space Shuttles. The Ares would enable NASA to service satellites and the International Space Station. I believe what Sen. Nelson is doing in that letter is asking that the Ares program be continued, since the Constellation program, of which it is a part, has been cancelled. I know that's not much, but if you have more specific questions, please email me back and I will let you know.
