I agree! let’s get M flying

Here’s a great statement from a fellow Wisconsiner and a man who worked with the Old NASA gang!
The Shuttle has been flying for over 20 years. Both disasters were cause by NASA management not because of a flaw in the shuttle.
Want to fix the Shuttle..... Get back to the Moon and on to Mars...Fire 80% of PC NASA and make sure you get all of the upper management!

NASA gets away with blatant age discrimination AND Some reader feedback.

President Kennedy referred to the Apollo Program as "Mankind’s greatest adventure."

It shouldn't be the last one however. Let Roll!
