C. Blake Powers, former Director of Outreach for the NASA Space Product Development Program and regular blogger over at Laughing Wolf, is calling for the abolition of NASA: bq. I have come to the conclusion that NASA needs to be abolished. It is the only way to make the substantive changes needed. In talking with others about this, I think that many of the services done by NASA can be given to more appropriate agencies, while a completely new organization can be started to take on the true core functions of NASA.

He suggests that the Bush Administration has had draconian plans to reform NASA for some time but that Columbia but the breaks on that effort.

He's right. Go read the the entire thing. And call your congressman about it!
