Of course Mike Nelson wants to go to space. He misses his old spaceship, where he had to watch those bad movies with his robot pals.

(Oh yeah, I just remembered he dropped the "Mike Nelson" part of his name years ago. Too bad.)


GWB was pretty pro-space. But NASA can't get much done in one or two four-year terms.


Each president talks about how space is awesome. But lots of other things are awesome and need funding.

The one candidate with any real decent space cred didn't make make it very far in his party's primaries last time he ran.
