Viceprezident USA, Mike Pence, chce, aby NASA v roku 2024 opäť vyslala kozmonautov na Mesiac. Ide o reakciu na nové vesmírne preteky s Čínou a Ruskom. Problémom však môže byť nízky rozpočet NASA.

In a speech just now, Mike Pence proposed sending astronauts back to the Moon within five years.

Just as a reminder, here’s the NASA budget over time. Current projections for 2018/2019/2020 are small fluctuations on the 2017 point. See if you can spot the Apollo years. pic.twitter.com/sLwdEjhdJg
