In his call for expanded science funding, Obama made several references to then-President John Kennedy's call in the early 1960s to put a man on the moon by the end of that decade. The President said a renewed funding push would allow the United States to catch and surpass other countries with breakthroughs that "will exceed the level achieved at the height of the space race." Obama also stated it was time for "unbiased" science. A full text of the speech is available at http://www.nas.edu/
