Is Ending NASA's Constellation Program a Bad Move?

Probably not, IMHO. Doing a manned spaceflight program on the cheap was a bad idea. Shifting money from NASA's unmanned science program to fund this bad idea was even worse.

Many former astronauts believed that Constellation was an accident waiting to happen. Instead of recycling old ideas and hardware let's do the research and engineering required for a successful space program.

Obama did the right thing by killing a poorly conceived program.
