Rumors of the LTSA program returning

Steinn Sigurdsson reports rumors that the NASA LTSA (Long Term Space Astrophysics) funding program may return. The LTSA program has been not offered for several years due to budget cuts.

This would be good news for younger researchers in the space sciences, in particular those using mainly HST, Chandra, XMM-Newton or Spitzer data, who are ineligible for the currently remaining funding programs like the ADP. Let us hope the rumor is true.
