Trump to start process of sending Americans back to moon
2017-12-11
President Donald Trump on Monday will sign a directive aimed at sending Americans back to the moon and eventually to Mars, the White House said.

Spokesman Hogan Gidley said Trump will sign "Space Policy Directive 1" that orders NASA "to lead an innovative space exploration program to send American astronauts back to the Moon, and eventually Mars."

#7  Government should stick to infrastructure that will assist the various corporate entities. A proper space station that can be used for refueling once in orbit for example.

#5  But what about NASA's mission - for Muslim Outreach?

Well, once you reach the Moon, you can build an electromotive cannon and really reach out to Muslims (h/t RAH).

#3  The private companies have been making progress in the meantime. NASA may want to hand that off to them, while concentrating on Mars and such.

#2  So much time has been lost. O killed the program and has his people in place at this time. The wealthy will have their opportunity now. Reminds me of the Buffalo hunts by train. With any future we will have the doom and gloom people. Poking holes in the atmosphere and so on. Very much like an old movie favorite of mine;
