In OTL, NASA is a quasi-military quasi-civilian organization with a hefty part of the USA GDP. AFAIK NASA covers most of the nation's space exploration, while the Air Force has control over anything military-related in space.
What if that was never so--that is, since its inception, NASA had control of all space-related activities by the USA, including but not limited to exploration, nuclear weaponry, surveillance, and whatnot.
This would obviously entail a large kick in NASA's budget, but what else? Would this compromise NASA's mission as a relatively peace-related space organization?
