Quick question. Which branch is responsible for legislating?

Great!
When will the NASA space center be moved to Tel Aviv?

Completely plausible. He announced icebreaker ships that have been in the process of being built

Muh-bad man Massie!
Ironically, Lara (you are Lara Loomer, right?) , the definition of "rino" would be Donald Trump. He is after all a 1990s centrist-style Democrat who only ran as a Republican because the Dems had slid far-Left.

Yes Congress is definitely to lazy for legislation. If they can't get richer off of it they're not interested.

It's a waste of paper

And just like that the left was against space travel and suddenly the movement that was the moon landing deniers will suddenly be populated by leftists.

I've listened to to a couple of YouTube vids with some astrophysicist geeks talking about a trip to Mars and they do not believe astronauts could survive with the current technology on a 3-4 year round trip to Mars due to lethal doses of various types of cosmic radiation.
If this ^^^^ is true then one would think the Apollo astronauts would have received some serious doses of cosmic radiation going to and from the moon.

That's my point. The person I was responding to was blaming Trump for not legislating

Would rather focus on the economy, immigration and culture issues instead of this useless shite.

The cool thing about the government (if there is anything cool about it) is that they can do many things at once because they're a rather large organization. You're free to focus on whatever of course.

Better late than never. An outpost on the Moon would be a lot more valuable than those in the Antarctic. A lot of valuable research can be done like lunar farming, construction, 3D printed manufacturing among other things that should be developed before a base on Mars. The Moon is a short commute compared to Mars.

Hope that’s it cause China is on their way. Within ten years they will have a “permanent outpost” on the moon.

The space craft would be shielded and moving away from the sun towards Mars. Radiation levels reduce on a 1/r squared relationship.
The problem is actually can they live in zero gravity on the way and back for the duration. Mars has 1/4 of earth gravity. Significant loss of muscle and bone loss may be a problem.

Goals for NASA based on new executive order
• Land back on the Moon by 2028
• Golden Dome in-space missile defense prototypes by 2028
• Nuclear power on the Moon by 2030
• Lunar base by 2030 — and prep for Mars
"A return to the Moon ... we want to do that before 2028. In fact, we have a mission, Artemis II, that's set to launch in the very near future. It will be the first time we send American astronauts around the Moon, in more than a half century"
"We want to follow that up with a landing ... one of the most important parts of this new space policy is when they get there, it's not just to plant the flag and pick up some rocks, but establish the infrastructure, establish a lunar base and all the other things like our nuclear propulsion and nuclear power investments so we can set up missions beyond the Moon and to Mars"
"We're not just going back to the Moon the way we did more than a half century ago, the President says, get there, establish the infrastructure so we can stay this time ... [and then] go beyond it"
— NASA Admin Jared Isaacman
