Our Tax Dollars at Work - NASA, ESA, etc

Exploration, Innovation, Advancement of Humanity, or more government waste - what do you think of when you see NASA, ESA, RSKA, JAXA, CSA, CNES, DLR, or ISRO? Is your response different depending on the country?

How does your response to government-run space agencies differ from that of private endeavors, such as Space-X, SpaceDev, XCorAerospace, etc?

Do you have similar feelings for the big contractors that have assisted NASA, such as Boeing and Lockheed-Martin?

What is your favorite invention or technology that was developed by a space agency?

Share any interesting news

We've already had a thread questioning people's exposure to information about space exploration, but this thread is a bit different. I have no idea what direction it might take, but I figured if nothing else, it would be a good place to start listing interesting news articles about the space agencies as I come across them. Hopefully others will join in, too!
