Moon Mission is one more step closer...

So, this piece of news just surfaced on Digg.
the article is about Obama getting the NASA budget into order and I think this is HUGE news. Sure, the new moon mission has been in the minds of NASA and everyone that speculates on the future of the space programs of the world (and aren't fully satisfied with the ISS).


This is the link. Interesting intent. I mean it's one thing to say things about it, but it's another to actually be successful. It would seem that Obama is really making his intents known with the budget news that's coming out. The possibilities that can stem from this decision is quite stunning. This news coupled with what's already been announced RE: tech in the stimulus package suggests that the trends being established today will continue the rate of change they've been experiencing since 2000. Obama has priorities straight. It seems his boldness is impacting things here.

I was listening to CBC Radio one and heard some people talking about what was being passed currently in parliment regarding the creating of a smart energy system. Essentially a system that is able to control variable load better by introducing intelligent machine into the control system. It's a very important investment. So, if we can prioritize that we'll stay on track.
