Meanwhile, the Trump administration is trying to shut down the Commercial Crew Program, a program that helps commercial companies get out of the commercial space business.

"I have spoken about this program on the campaign trail, and it's a major problem," said Scott Kelly, the founder and CEO of the Spaceflight Now, a nonprofit that advocates for human spaceflight. "They're trying to shut down the program, and it's a major problem that they've got to deal with. It's not going to be done fast enough to shut down the program. They're just giving away the money. They're giving away the money because they're worried that they will be shut down for a long time."

Trump's executive orders, which were signed Saturday, require a federal safety review under the Federal Aviation Administration, which oversees all commercial spaceflight programs. The FAA also has the power to issue rules and regulations on SpaceX, Boeing, and other commercial businesses that might be affected by the Trump agenda.

The Trump administration has also proposed a rule that would ban commercial crew flights of commercial airliners, including those owned by SpaceX and Boeing. The rule would also prohibit all U.S. government and private partners from using commercial aircraft to conduct commercial missions to the International Space Station.

"In the past, we've been very much against the commercial crew program, and we're going to have to find a way to deal with that," Musk said during a recent speech at the White House. "But I don't think we're going to have to get into that anymore."

After the United Launch Alliance's flight of its Falcon 9 rocket, the company announced on Tuesday that it would not be using the Commercial Crew program for the future, while SpaceX also announced earlier this year that it would be building a Dragon spacecraft."You know, we're all about the best of what we can do, so maybe we should be all about the best of what we can do, especially when it comes to the things we're doing," said former San Diegan Mayor Mike Napolitano who has been involved in efforts to push for the repeal of the Affordable Care Act. "I think it's important that we have a conversation about the future of the Affordable Care Act."With the rise of "new age" media, the idea of "progressive" is no doubt on the rise, and with the right-wing backlash against the media, this may be no different.
