The president's proposed budget for FY2007 for NASA sets out significant reductions in the growth for space science funding, as well as reductions to previously planned Explorer and Flagship missions. With this proposed budget and recent changes in NASA's Advisory structure, this is a good time to assess the state of astronomy and astrophysics at NASA. The AAS Committee on Astronomy & Public Policy has assembled a distinguished panel to discuss the FY2007 budget and what it implies for the future.
Panel Members: Dr. Jack Schmitt, Chair of NAC (confirmed). Dr. Anneila Sargent, Cal Tech, chair of NRC Board of Physics and Astronomy (confirmed). Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson, American Museum of Natural History, member of NAC. Dr. Garth Illingworth, University of California at Santa Cruz, Chair of AAAC (confirmed) Dr. Len Fisk, University of Michigan, Chair of SSB and ex-officio member of NAC (confirmed).
