Bill Nelson: “I suspect that what's going to happen, if we can get people really excited about us going back to the Moon, and on to…”

I would say that there is a significant difference of opinion about that.

Funding NASA is critical to getting back to the moon, advancing our scientific understanding, and driving innovation.

We cannot operate our science agencies on the cheap, and we should not operate them without clear, multi-year direction.

One of the reasons you and I were able to accomplish so much on this committee is both of us worked very hard to keep politics out of NASA and to focus on the core mission of exploration.
