My fears that the media would start claiming "space is unsafe" have so far not become reality. They are instead questioning the vision of NASA, agreeing with the president that NASA must continue to exist and explore. Since the media operates on profits from unfounded speculation, I'm thankful they targeted NASA's vision instead of their integrity. Unfortunately NASA's budget does not allow for the grand vision it once had of landing humans on mars. The ISS was barely given enough funding to be completed and even that was underestimated to get it past congress. I see people becoming aware of their space program, and hopefully this will lead to more funding. It is unfortunate that a disaster like this had to happen to get the spotlight on NASA, but now that it is I hope the end result is positive, and results in more funding.
