I'm used to read the latest and greatest on space exploration at night when finally I get home some peace at night and to relax a bit but it appears NASA website is shutdown.

 

I cant seem to get any news as to what the implications are for the current on-going programs.

 

Curiosity mars mission has left the rover sleeping? Dawn? New horizons? Is anyone taking care of them at all?

 

Seriously concerned they could cause damage capable of throwing us back years...

Is there anything, that is not affected?

 

Even Lockheed has cut work on defense programs.

 

 

I know, politics are not to be discussed on the forums, but these days I wonder about the old quote: united we stand, divided we fall.

I couldn't care less about Lockheed, but NASA shutting down the website? Wow, that is sad. :(

ED have been taking my money since 1995. :P

Agree, military aviation takes second place here in my book. Anything connected to government has shutdown their sites. Even satellite (sorry for pun) sites that are still up, have stopped updating. I hope ESA has taken over critical functions of on-going missions.

From the NASA website:

Due to the lapse in federal government funding, this website is not available.

 

I see the whitehouse page is still up with a disclaimer on it that says the info might be out of date. Don't see why NASA couldn't have done the same and left the static content online. Talk about overkill.

 

I can appreciate the cost of running media streams, live TV etc. and the manpower behind them but to take the whole site offline is just stupid IMO.

IMHO all this jockeying on both side was to save face due to the elections in November and the mid terms next year.:noexpression:
