Penny4NASA is a campaign run by the Space Advocates nonprofit, a nonpartisan organization seeking to promote the expansion of funding for the economic, scientific and cultural value of the United States' national space program by advocating an increase in the budget for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration to at least one percent of the United States Federal Budget. Penny4NASA also attempts to promote public awareness of the NASA mission and budget, and has produced a series of outreach videos, as well as performing educational outreach via social media. ==Overview== Penny4NASA is a campaign of Space Advocates, an initiative founded by John Zeller in 2012, and proposes an increase in the budget for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration to promote the scientific and technological goals of the space agency.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.penny4nasa.org/why-we-fight/ )〕 The organization works to accomplish these aims through public outreach, educational materials,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.penny4nasa.org/the-mission/ )〕 and has organized petitions to the Executive and Legislative〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.popvox.com/bills/us/112/x35 )〕 branches of the United States government toward those aims. Penny4NASA is the campaign Space Advocates is best known for. The Penny4NASA campaign was founded in 2012 following the testimony of astrophysicist Neil DeGrasse Tyson – curator of the Hayden Planetarium in New York – before the United States Senate Science Committee.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.haydenplanetarium.org/tyson/read/2012/03/07/past-present-and-future-of-nasa-us-senate-testimony )〕 According to Tyson's testimony, “Right now, NASA’s annual budget is half a penny on your tax dollar. For twice that—a penny on a dollar—we can transform the country from a sullen, dispirited nation, weary of economic struggle, to one where it has reclaimed its 20th century birthright to dream of tomorrow.”〔
