Obama"s budget which aims to cut funding in certain areas while increasing money used to create jobs would cancel NASA"s Constellation Program. The program has sought to send astronauts back to the moon by 2020. NASA"s program also intended to study the idea of establishing a moon colony. The program was set to follow the U.

What did NASA"s Constellation Program originally plan to do?
