Well there you have it! If the continued security of 290 million
people depended on the shuttle they'd launch that mutha with the
innards hangin' out. If the flights aren't flawless now, theres nothing
to be gained and national prestige to be lost.
If the lives of 1,800 fighting men can prevent another 2,800
innocent civilians from being killed I'd say it was a proper and prudent use
of the Armed services, wouldn't U?

Alrighty then I suppose then that the prestige
of the U.S. is kind of tied into the Space Program.
Damn shame we aren't in the process of putting
a man (and goil) on the surface of Mars.

The 'average' Joe has a far bettah chance of 'wallowing' in the muck
than becoming an Astronaut.
The above post is quite extremely offensive to everyone that
holds the men and wimen's that risk their lives in the service of our (my)
country
Tell me CM of H winner he was just a 'grunt'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He may tell you that was what he was though heh

Weather troubles....
Shuttles have landed 61 times at Kennedy, 49 times at Edwards and only once — way back in 1982 — at White Sands, NASA's last-ditch resort for a shuttle touchdown. Columbia ended up landing in a sandstorm in New Mexico on that third shuttle flight and, for decades, workers were still finding sand in the shuttle's nooks and crannies.
Well...it doesn't look like they're going to be landing in Florida anytime soon
Edwards AFB is a better option
so much for that $1million
Good luck NASA!
