Ok...I get it...you're having a 'bad' day.

No football...(I know I don't count the Pro-Bowl..)....maybe your remote is on the fritz....and your hemmoroids are killing you....

BUT....whenever we send up ANYTHING into space...we are exploring.

It may not always be 'glamorous'...or exciting...but it IS exploring how things work up there.

Now...in order to feel better....re-run the Super Bowl.....buy a new remote....and get some Preperation H....

You WILL feel better in the morning.

Well I hope you got your fill because thats all you will see for some time. The International Space Station is going to be abandoned and the shuttles wont fly again for at least two or three years. In the meantime, according to an article I just posted from the Wall Street Journal, a large percentage of NASA's workforce is going to elligible to retire in five years. Similarly, a large percentage of the major NASA contractors are also going to loose much of their workforce.
