[00:00.00] A panel of experts appointed by the White House
[00:03.69] has warned that current plans to send astronauts back to the moon
[00:06.86] in preparation for manned missions to Mars
[00:09.41] are just not viable.
[00:10.90] One of the panel members Li Ruoqiao
[00:13.33] says the space agency NASA
[00:15.57] hasn't been given enough funds to realize the plans.
[00:17.81] "That is when the visions for space aspirations
[00:21.72] were first announced in 2004
[00:23.47] there was expectation of a certain budget level
[00:25.52] of the next several years.
[00:27.14] In fact over the last five years
[00:29.00] those numbers are nothing realized.
[00:30.68] So because of that we are in a pickle that we are in now."
[00:33.48] The experts say the current budget of the space agency NASA
[00:37.27] would need to be increased by billions of dollars.
[00:39.45] Without the extra money,
[00:41.13] the experts say, NASA would have to work
[00:42.94] with private companies now
[00:44.62] trying to embark on commercial space flights.
