Hour One: Future of Space Exploration

In this hour of Science Friday, we'll be taking your calls on the subject of space exploration in the wake of the Columbia disaster. How will the loss of Columbia affect space policy in the US?

Should the agency put more emphasis on unmanned projects? Should we focus on Earth? Or go to the stars? We'll also get an update on the investigation into the cause of the shuttle's breakup.

Call in with your comments and questions at 1-800-989-8255, and take our online survey on priorities for the space program.
