For all the wrangling about the future of U.S. spaceflight, the New York Times had an article to remind us today that the U.S. not only has the largest spaceflight program in the world (NASA), but also the second largest space flight program in the world (DoD).

I think the real consternation comes from the fact that all spaceflight that has a compelling rationale is unmanned. This rise of the robots in the budget somehow has people confused about what our space programs are capable of.
