NASA going back to the moon in 2018 for "only" 100 billion dollars spread over 14 years. A huge amount of money but still half of what the Apollo program costs. NASA saves money by reusing Apollo and Space Shuttle techniques and experience.

There will be two rockets, 1 for the to moon transport vehicle and 1 for the crew.

I cant wait for humanity to get back to the Moon and then onto Mars. I might have to make the trip to Florida in 2018 for the launch seeing as I wasnt around during the Apollo program. I just hope they've settled on the CEV concept/design by then, this is the fourth of fifth design I've seen this year and is radicly different then the past few designs and launch vehicles.

I can't wait for someone to fix New orleans. I guess 1300 dead in floods isn't important . We should go to the moon and put bush there.
