What did NASA’s Constellation Programme originally plan to do?
American astronauts will not return to the moon as planned if US Congress passes President Obama’s proposed budget. Obama’s budget- which aims to cut funding in certain areas while increasing money used to create jobs—would cancel NASA’s Constellation Program. The program had sought to send astronauts back to the moon by 2020^. NASA’s program also intended to study the idea of establishing a moon colony. The program was set to follow the U. S. space agency’s shuttle missions, which are due to end in September. On its Web site, the White House Budget Office says the program to send astronauts to the moon is behind schedule, over budget and overall less important than other space investments. "Using a broad range of criteria, an independent review panel determined that even if fully funded, NASA’s program to repeat many of the achievements of the Apollo era, 50 years later, was the least attractive approach to space exploration as compared to potential alternatives22 ," the site says.
选项
A、there were more important space missions
B、the space agency lacked funding for the programme
C、the current shuttle missions would continue
D、Congress failed to pass President Obama’s budget
答案
A
解析
推理题。由“Using a broad range of criteria,an independent review panel determined that even if fully funded,NASA’s program to repeat many of the achievements of the Apollo era,50 years later,was the least attractive approach to space exploration as compared to potential alternatives”可知白宫预算部门采用了一系列标准和独立审查组等措施,得出结论:即便有充足的资金,NASA的计划是50年前阿波罗时代的翻本,和其他潜在的太空探险项目相比最不具吸引力。
