When it comes to space policy, reliving the glory days too often means pouring billions of taxpayer dollars into black holes. Preliminary budget plans suggest that the Trump Administration will provide funding for Space Policy Directive 1, which tasks NASA with getting humans back to the moon for the first time in over 45 years. Ross Marchand (@RossAMarchand) is the policy director for the Taxpayers Protection Alliance in Washington DC. NASA is already testing the feasibility of using the Orion space capsule to get humans to and from alien worlds. President Trump's directive, hatched from a unanimous recommendation from the National Space Council in June, has the agency eager to prove that it can once again taxi humans into space.
