Restructuring NASA

House Republicans have introduced a bill to restructure NASA. Supporters say it would bring long-term stability to the space agency and take politics out of the process. The NASA administrator would serve a 10-year term, similar to the FBI and the National Science Foundation. A new board of directors would oversee the agency. But lawmakers and the White House would appoint board members. Virginia Congressman Frank Wolf says NASA has wasted more than $20 billion in cancelled programs over the last two decades. He blames cost overruns along with mismanagement and politics.
