Not sure what you are asking? I support the space program, we have gotten a lot of scientific advancement from same and sometimes it helps to escape the world's problems even vicariously.

I just saw on the All Star Game that the Planet of the Apes is arriving on August 5th. This would never happen with the old NASA

reading your posts is like talking to someone with a permanent mouthful of marbles. you make dell seem like a clear communicator.

congratulations on being more obscure than a guy who posts drunk 80% of the time. it must be fun having a private language that only you can understand.

The world has changed significantly since the days of Spudnik, it really isn't a race now days, Russia and the US cooperate in many ventures and there is little if any tactical advantage anymore. The US will hopefully concentrate on new ventures while allowing the private sector to assume a greater role in shuttle type missions. I still dream of the day when we land on Mars and eventually explore the entire solar system and beyond but that won't happen in my lifetime....unless the Vulcans visit.

The US will hopefully concentrate on spending the money that they wasted on NASA all these years and spend it in a much more useful manner. Going forward they should let the private sector assume all roles in shuttle type missions.

i really haven't heard that term used in anything except a historical context since 1969.

do you want comments on the lunar landing program from 40 years ago? what did "barry the destroyer" have to do with that?

you keep plinking away at keys but seem incapable of forming an entire thought. wtf was the purpose of this thread? spit it out.

So Barry gets pounded by these guys for not reducing the budget and then gets pounded by these guys for doing just that with NASA...

The Canadian Spaceship program is next.



Even though Nova Scotia will forever remain a mysterious body.Could it provide the basic necessities for life forms?

We'll never know,apparently.

Sad.
