CHRISTOPHER CRUISE: The United States Congress will decide NASA’s budget for twenty-twelve. The Obama administration has asked for a small amount of money to aid commercial human space flights. The administration has asked for almost three billion dollars for NASA to start plans for something to replace the shuttles. Scientists think the next spacecrafts will be able to fly to the moon, asteroids, and other places much deeper in space than we have gone before.

BOB DOUGHTY: A new study shows that more than eighty percent of Internet users in the United States search for health information online. The study comes from the Pew Research Center's Internet and American Life Project and the California HealthCare Foundation.
Susannah Fox from the Pew Internet Project says doctors are still the main providers of health information. But the survey found that exploring the Internet is one of the leading ways that people look for a second opinion.
SUSANNAH FOX: "People are sort of fact-checking what they have heard from a doctor. Our studies show that people are still very likely to turn to a health professional when they need a diagnosis or are planning a treatment."
CHRISTOPHER CRUISE: Forty-four percent of people are looking for doctors or other providers when they search for health information online. Another finding of the survey: Two-thirds of Internet users look online for information about a specific disease or medical condition.
