We should encourage and support commercial space ventures, but Dr Zubrin is right. With no clear mission, this administration is turning NASA into a science & technology version of Housing and Urban Development. Money goes to the politically connected and success is assured because success consists of nothing more than spending the money on random projects. In the process, NASA becomes not a science agency but a contract management shop (this has been going on for a while, but Obama’s “plans” are accelerating the process tremendously).
