Nazca or New Mexico?

What the Hell is Going on Up There?

 

  This came out of nowhere:

CAPE CANAVERAL — President Barack Obama will ask Congress to extend International Space Station operations through at least 2020 but abandon NASA's current plans to return U.S. astronauts to the moon, administration and NASA officials said Wednesday.
