NASA is embarrassed

The world's leading space exploration agency, but the US Space and Aeronautics Agency (NASA) is in a difficult situation without knowing the way out. As planned, three years from now, NASA must stop launching the shuttle to study the exploration of the Moon and Mars.

The trouble is that this new program consumes all the estimated budget for the new space shuttle (Orion ship), so it is not until 2015 that the Orion ship can operate. That is, from 2010-2015, the US does not have a human and cargo supply space ship for the International Space Research Station (ISS); talented people will move to places where there are many programs to operate and help other ' giants ' such as Russia, China and India surpass America.

'It is ironic that the United States must rely on the kindness of Russia and China when it comes to shipping and astronauts to the International Space Station,' said Professor John Logsdon of the University of Washington.
