Obama has had to defend his commitment to the space agency in the politically important U.S. state after submitting a | Read More »

    Obama administration kills 23K space-related jobs in Florida.

    So they can spend that money right here on Earth: Revised projections now show that about 23,000 workers at and around Kennedy Space Center will lose their jobs because of the shuttles’ retirement and the new proposal to cancel the development of new rockets and spacecraft.
