Go to the planetary defense blog - around $4 million for detection once again.

Senior NASA management continues to try to hand this off to NSF, when space assets are going to have to be used to provide adequate detection.

Everyone working this problem gets no NASA funding. Crater counters. Field geologists. Lab workers working with impact products. Archaeologists working impact sites.

I've had a stroke, and have one finger on my left hand working, but I'm still here, so I'll scream about this once again.

When I started to cover this Shoemaker and Brown were both alive, and I never thought I'd see so much incompetence
continue for so long.

Weiler and Morrison need to be relieved. The cometary impact numbers NASA is providing to the Congress are garbage.

The US needs to go ahead with CAPS.
