A LOOK AT BARACK OBAMA’S SPACE POLICY.
Mark Whittington has some thoughts. “Unfortunately it constitutes a return to the 1990s during which astronauts flew in circles in low Earth orbit and commercial space was ignored.”
UPDATE: A reader emails: “I tried to follow the Obama space policy back to find the original position paper on the Obama website. There doesn’t appear to be one. Furthermore, it looks like everybody who’s commenting on the piece points at the same link you did. I wonder if this is bogus?”
Seems unlikely, but I couldn’t find it on the site either, though I found the site somewhat hard to navigate. Any Obama campaign folks want to respond?
