It is estimated that, generously, there are approximately 300,000 amateur astronomers in the US. That averages out to about $63,333 for each household with an amateur astronomer. Look at it another way, as of Jan. 1, 2009 there were approximately 12,549,000 Americans who have had cancer in their lives. That averages out to about $1514 for each household with a person who has or had cancer. Where do you think they would prefer the money to be spent? And that is with the understanding that some of the imaging techniques used in cancer detection today came from NASA problem solving.... Cut NASA's budget--don't eliminate it, but use the money in emergent sciences where you can see a greater RoI. |

Some interesting maps. I really like twistedsifter. Others on CP have linked various pages from there.

I never watched the clip you had posted, Fish, until now. NDT is a ****ing monster of knowledge and the closest that one could get to a physics rockstar.
Good clip. |
