With budget cuts stalling mission plans, local congressional representatives say at stake are critical space exploration and national leadership.
This NASA drawing shows all the space vehicles involved to retrieve Mars samples and bring them back to earth. PASADENA — Roughly two dozen California congressional representatives sent a letter to NASA Administrator Bill Nelson on Wednesday, March 20, calling on him to commit at least $650 million to an ambitious Jet Propulsion Laboratory-led mission to collect rock and soil samples from Mars and return them to Earth.
In the letter sent to Nelson Wednesday, members of California’s congressional delegation — including Reps. Judy Chu, D-Pasadena, Mike Garcia, R-Santa Clarita, and Adam Schiff, D-Burbank — called the Mars Sample mission a critical program that will ensure the United States is a leader in exploration of space and Mars.
