Personally I think the budget of NASA is inconsequential to say the defense budget. Not sure what the general HN vibe is, but probably mostly leaning towards “waste of my tax dollars / inefficient”
- XorNot 4y agoProblem with SLS is politics changed design decisions. There shouldn't be solid fuel boosters on it at all, but NASA was ordered to put them in.

- the_mungler 4y agoI don't know exactly in this case, but congressmen have always been making NASA rockets more expensive. They often made it so that at least a part of the rockets were built in their respective states, making things more expensive than needed.
