NASA's New Budget [infographic]
Friday, February 19, 2010 at 1:00PM GOOD has a good timeline of NASA’s budget over the last 50 years.
The Obama administration announced a new budget for NASA, which despite a nominal increase, cuts future programs and the prospect of more space exploration. This is a look at NASA’s budget over time, and the major missions it accomplished with that budget.
A collaboration between GOOD and Karlssonwilker.
Although, since the timeline wraps like text to keep it on one page, I think the bars that represent the different programs should stay in the same order. And what’s with the flashing images when you view the large infographic?

While I realize the idea is to show the percentage of the total budget that NASA gets, I didn't see anything on the chart that showed the dollar values had been adjusted for inflation. So, you can't really compare from year to year. That IMHO seems to takeaway from the graphic.
