Ping.

They'd probably decide that we aren't allowed to achieve full launch velocity, because it might make the Chinese look bad.

Thanks for the ping. Lots of speculation, not much fact right now. Some of the higher ups at NASA that I deal with (EVA community) have been in DC last week. Word is there were discussions over manned vs. robotic space flight. Not even any rumors of the results. We'll just have to wait and see what the president says.
