The Space Shuttle is outdated equipment and technology and ending the program was a good idea.

“The Space Shuttle is outdated equipment and technology and ending the program was a good idea.”

We have a 100 Billion dollar investment floating around in space and now have no access to it, unless we pay the RUssians. They DOUBLED their last fee.

You think THAT is a good idea?

I agree. I drive NASA Road 1 in Clear Lake a couple of times per week, and there are MANY office buildings empty that were full of NASA contractor personnel. Any corporation looking to relocate to Texas can find lots of office space at a very low price.

Conservatives should hail the privatization of space, American can private sector into space while other countries are launching Monkeys like we did in 1961.
Now let us shut down NASA completely and privatize the Postal Service and end the subsidization of Amtrak.
