In the meantime, NASA won’t be ‘returning’ to space in 2014. As I type this, there are active missions at Mercury, the Moon, Mars, the asteroid belt, Saturn and beyond the borders of the solar system – plus others on their way right now to Jupiter and Pluto.

It’s just that instead of astronauts, these missions are staffed by robots – not giant freakin ones, but pretty cool anyway :) . Check out: this list and this list of all the missions and how to see pictures and news from all of them.
