CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- NASA is investigating how a bag of cocaine got into the hangar that houses space shuttle Discovery at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

NASA spokesman Allard Beutel said Thursday that the bag contained a tiny amount of the illegal substance. It was found by a worker in a secure part of the hangar that is accessible by about 200 NASA employees and contractors.

NASA is drug testing and interviewing workers, as well as using drug-sniffing dogs.

It's sad to see, cocaine in secure areas and cooking the books on global warming.

The wonderful Nasa of my youth is no more.

And this was in a “secure area” no less. The next one (sts-130) is scheduled for Feb. 7 with “Endeavor”

Of mine too. I was working there in the early 70s (Shuttle project) the day one of the researchers remarked gloomily to me that NASA had just reached a milestone -- one administrator for each researcher.

When my brother had a coke problem in the 80’s, his supplier was a NASA guy. I don’t think NASA was/is the problem however. Just a coincident with regards to my brother. Who, by the way, has been drug/alcohol free for more than 20 yrs.
