WP/AP: 3 critics of NASA budget cuts to science programs quit panel

<snip>

CAPE CANAVERAL, Aug. 18 -- Three NASA advisers who spoke out against budget cuts to the space agency's science programs turned in their resignations this week, officials said Thursday.

Wesley T. Huntress Jr., Charles F. Kennel and Eugene H. Levy each served on the NASA Advisory Council's science committee. Kennel resigned by choice, but Huntress and Levy were asked to leave by NASA Administrator Michael D. Griffin.
