Why isn't NASA issuing major statements every hour, dragging various designs out of the file cabinets for the manned expedition and Mars settlement and causing 3 inch high bold headlines in all the papers? What is going on at NASA?

NASA is doing its job, which doesn't include lobbying to go to Mars. It takes direction from the White House and Congress, and if O'Keefe were to do what you propose, he'd be out of a job in short order.

I would assume that the press conference was canceled because there was no news to present--it had already been released last week.

That's what they said. Nevermind that the scientists who were to announce with all the world waiting breathlessly and become famous forever decided to stay home and watch Smurfs on TV.
