President Bush Offers New Vision For NASA
Press release on the 14th. Going back to the moon and then on to Mars. Very cool.

On the other hand, this article talks about shutting down the shuttle and the space stations in order to finance it. I kind of understand why they are shutting the shuttle down, but not the space station. In my limited understanding, the idea would be to create long range vehicles on the space stations and launch them from there. This allows one type of vehicle to launch from the earth (which is costly due to breaking free of the earth's gravity pull) and others to launch from the space station (which is much cheaper).

But then again, I don't follow this much, so what do I know? Guess I'll have to read up on it more.
