It has been announced that NASA's budget for the fiscal year of 2013 will be $17.6B This is NOT adequate funding for an agency that has brought us such an incredible amount of technological, economical, and inspirational progress!
Many people use NASA's inventions every day, from Water filters to shoe insoles, NASA has left its mark on society for decades, but if the government does not set its priorities straight, we will see the end of this program.
In 1966, NASA's budget was nearly 5$ of the GDP, and in today's money, 32 billion dollars. Today's budget is HALF of that.
Please sign this petition so that NASA can continue to innovate, and so that our voices can be heard.
