Space Blogger Doug Meisser today points ParabolicArc to an interview with Elon Musk on SpacePod in which the commercial space pioneer calls for space advocates to contact Congressional members with a "clarion call to rally 'the people' against the 'evil' forces." The Senate passed legislation provides funding for NASA contracts to purchase human commercial space launch while the House Science Committee measure deprives significant monies. Meanhwhile, the Senate advances a heavy-lift NASA booster. But Musk downplayed a SpaceX version of a heavy-lift capable booster from his firm as nothing more than professional speculation of an engineer at a conference. Many argue that NASA must have a heavy-lift capable booster in the Kennedy Space Center stable.
