The Plundering of NASA

"I hope you continue as a voice against pork at NASA"
Lori Garver, (former Deputy Administrator of NASA) commenting to the author about The Plundering of NASA: an Exposé


"The Plundering of NASA: An Exposé by R.D. Boozer is the indispensable source for a wide range of information about the SLS controversy and the machinations within NASA, the Congress, aerospace companies and two Administrations that have left us in the terrible mess we are in today. It is the most comprehensive single source for both SLS-Orion program information and context. I have written several articles about the SLS issue and found the book very valuable and interesting."
John K Strickland, Jr., member National Space Society Board of Directors
Advocate: Space Frontier Foundation

"I really liked it. He covers all the essential background info and makes a complex topic clear and comprehensible for a broad audience."

Clark Lindsey – Managing Editor of NewSpace Watch

"A great way to increase your knowledge.  As the old saying goes, knowledge is power.  Understanding what is going on can only help our advancement in spaceflight.  A great read."

Benjamin Higginbotham – Host and Executive Producer of Spacevidcast

Newly released book - The Plundering of NASA: an Exposé

It is time that American citizens take steps to stop the Congressional pork grab that is sapping the vitality from our space program.  Some politicians are using money in NASA's budget for purposes that don't advance the agency's mission.  If, like me, you want to see America doing exciting human space missions into the inner Solar System then get this book.  It is available from book distributors and bookstores and is available as a paperback or kindle ebook.  For more information about the book or to order now, go here:
