NASA Just Terminated Last Moon Rover After Trump Cuts NASA Funding
 

Such a shame, it was created to mine the moon for minerals & precious metals on missions in the 2020's . Putin thanks you Chump.

NASA Terminates Last Moon Rover After Trump Touts New Era Of Lunar Exploration

Just months after President Donald Trump hailed a new era of lunar exploration, scientists said they were stunned to learn the plug has been pulled on NASA’s last moon rover.

The rover, which was being designed for lunar missions in the early 2020s, was killed as NASA revealed plans to cultivate “commercial partners” for moon exploration.

Trump signed space policy directive 1 In November, ordering NASA to return humans to the moon.

But lunar scientists said they learned April 23 that the agency is abandoning plans for its Resource Prospector rover at the end of May. The little rover was being designed to excavate hydrogen, oxygen and water from the lunar poles, with the aim of determining how to extract and use lunar resources to support human life on the moon.

“I’m a little shocked,” Clive Neal, NASA’s emeritus chairman of the Lunar Exploration Analysis Group, told The Washington Post.

The mission was reportedly cut due to lack of funding, according to a letter sent by lunar scientists to NASA’s new administrator, Jim Bridenstine, calling on him to save the program.

Trump gave his speech got his rah rahs from the dumb ones now he quietly defunds the project and his supporters forget all about it.. In 5 years they will blame liberals and Democrats for stopping us from going to the moon..

Probably after he found out it was really exploring Area 51

BINGO!!

Amazing how people never seem to see the little man behind the curtain pulling al the strings even tho the Emperor has no cloths. Or something like that. Anyway you are spot on. :thumbsup

Yup. Trump 4 months ago

Well Trump has to be pay for that tax cut somehow.... Dumbasses.

nasa just got a $1.1 billion funding increase...
how the fuck is that a “cut”?

russia, india and china will lead the way in space exploration...it is not cost effective to do anything in the USA...india went to mars on their first try at 1/10th of the cost...the USA lost the space race to russia a long time ago...and now big dick china is entering the arena...theres enough helium 3 on the moon to power the earth for 1000-s of years...china wants it and is probably going to get it...

meanwhile the USA wasted trillions on wars...

Amazing how fast people forget that it was Obama who cut nearly all of NASA's funding and gave it to private companies like SpaceX, so he could bypass congressional oversight.

Trump just increased their budget. OMG impeach!! :1orglaugh

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

What precious metals are on the Moon to make mining viable?

means more money for his golf trips and those tax cuts aren't going to pay for themselves.
Chumpanzees are out deflecting...Obama...Hillary...yada yada

1000 year supply of helium 3...

They found huge deposits of Vibranium enough to last at least a 1000 years perhaps more !

Chump supporters don't let facts get in the way of their love for the liar in chief !

When NASA does something like land a launch rocket I'll pay attention again. A fucking limo driver launched himself in a rocket driven by steam on a shoestring budget and NASA moans over not being able to send a robot to the moon years from now.
