Bill Nelson: “I am just astounded over and over that people say, well, NASA needs to advertise more what it does.”

There are, in fact, private companies that are getting into the business now of supersonic transports, but they do not have this characteristic.

Our seed corn is research and development. We do not want to ever give that up, and that is the mission of NASA.

It is critical that NASA remain focused on its core mission.

When we find those, by the way, not only looking for life, we start to understand their development, and we better understand who we are, why we are here, how we got here, and all of this evolution of the cosmos.
