MattSparkes writes "Budget cuts could leave NASA without a Space Shuttle replacement, and leave it reliant on private firms to get payloads into space. A similar scenario happened between 1975 and 1981 when NASA made the transition from Apollo to the Space Shuttle. It seems like a strange state of affairs when a magazine can take people to space, but the USA can't."

I do not, however, believe space exploration is within the constitutionally defined limits of what the federal government should be doing.
Seems to me that it fits right in with the commerce clause.

At least this didn't happen on the way to Mars.
