摘要

NASA is expected to announce this summer that it will stick with the U.S.-German SOFIA program, the airplane-mounted astronomy telescope that has been on the chopping block since the beginning of the year. The U.S. space agency shocked the astronomy community and annoyed its German partners when it sent Congress a budget request in February that included no funding beyond this year for the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA). NASA has spent approximately $500 million to date modifying the 747 to serve as a flying observatory for scientists and teachers. The German Space Agency, DLR, contributed the state-of-the-art infrared telescope at a cost of just under $100 million.
