> I'm tired of saying this, but I have to say it again. The NASA budget is four tenths of one penny on a tax dollar. If I held up the tax dollar, and I cut horizontally into it, four tenths of one percent of it's width, it doesn't even get you into the ink. So I will not accept a statement that says, we can't afford it! > Do you realize that the 850 billion dollar bank bailout; that sum of money is greater than the entire fifty year running budget of NASA. > How much would you pay for the universe?
