Bill Nelson actually said...

"The shift to commercial spaceflight cannot come at the expense of astronaut safety."

"I don't think it's any different than the George Bush Administration. I think OMB is running the space program, because it designs the budget."

"If the Constellation program is canceled, how do we make sure that those valuable assets are integrated into the new program?"

"I believe that investing billions of dollars in technology development, as this budget proposes, without any clear vision, mission, or target date for achieving them is counterproductive."
