NASA Wants To Tow An Asteroid To The Moon: Senator

NASA wants to grab a small asteroid and tow it into orbit around the moon, as part of a long-range plan towards establishing permanent manned outposts in space, according to a US senator.
To get the project off the ground, US President Barack Obama will propose around $100 million for the US space agency in his 2014 budget, which he submits to Congress on Wednesday, Senator Bill Nelson said in a statement.
“This is part of what will be a much broader program,” the Florida Democrat explained.
“The plan combines the science of mining an asteroid, along with developing ways to deflect one, along with providing a place to develop ways we can go to Mars.”
The plan calls for a robotic-spacecraft to capture the asteroid and tow it back towards Earth, ultimately leaving it in a stable orbit around the moon, close enough that, within eight years, astronauts could head on over.

Gee, what could possibly go wrong with this idea?
I’m certain he could find a better way to spend 100 million dollars. To anyone who still believes in America or its President, anyone who keeps asking stupid questions about whether or not your destruction is imminent. Sit up, take notice now or forever hold your peace. America sucks, get out while you still can. You are going to hear a knock on the door soon. THIS IS YOUR MONEY. Don’t come crying to the rest of the world when you are starving and sick. Your apathy is blowing my mind.
