This might be old news here but here is some info on NASAs 2009 budget...<br /><br />Capsule (pun intended)<br />http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/budget/fy2009/nasa.html<br /><br />Big Bad 800 page budget...(loads like molasses)<br /><br />http://www.nasa.gov/pdf/210019main_NASA_FY...t_Estimates.pdf <br /><br />Other capsule:<br />http://www.space-travel.com/reports/NASA_Unveils_New_Budget_Request_For_2009_999.html<br /><br />And at the mars Society..<br />http://www.marssociety.org/portal/mars-news-from-the-san-diego-chapter/TMSSD_News_34150<br /><br />And (last but not least) at NASA..<br />http://www.nasa.gov/home/hqnews/2008/feb/HQ_08034_FY2009_budget.html<br /><br />Lots of interesting takes on all of this. The lunar probes might be of interest, especially if they are planning a manned return mission(s). Possible redirection of robotic resources from Mars to Luna.<br /><br />v3k <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>
