I've always wondered why NASA doesn't simply save a significant portion of its budget for a few years, so that it can do some high cost projects without being tied to the 4 year political timetable.<br /><br />Strip down, pay wages and fixed costs(hubble, servicing,etc), and just save for a given time period, socking it away into a 'savings account' of investments.<br /><br />If there was discipline, NASA could have a one time budget of 100 billion in 10 years, enough to do the really exciting stuff that the public wants to see.
