NASA outreach is tremendous bang for the buck.
Remember, science isn't just so the scientists can learn. It's so the scientists can learn and then present their finding to the public.
Of course, NASA didn't cut outreach because they carefully looked at their budget and decided this was the 1% that produced the least marginal value. They decided to cut outreach because it would generate public outrage.
I think NASA's budget should be increased, FWIW, but I recognize when I'm being played.
