NASA's Next Mission: Send Astronauts To Asteroid


NASA's budget is still infinitesi­mal compared to other agencies. you owe a lot to the spinoffs and discoverie­s made by the program. quite a few have been medical in nature. NASA's paid itself back over and over and over again.



go to the NASA Spinoff page at http://www­.sti.nasa.­gov/tto/ and go to the spinoff database. enter almost anything into the search fields and you'll likely find a spinoff. they range from better bicycle wheels to meals for the elderly.



politics is the reason you don't see what you want. most of those problems are ideologica­l in nature, and you have to deal with ideologues to get them, especially if you've been reading the news for the past few years.
