Now lets get this straight, you have a vehicle called a Shuttle that has
a
big external tank, are you all still there and listening.

The big external tank is covered by a foam, when the shuttle with the
big
orange tank takes of bits of foam from the big orange tank breaks away
and
causes damage to the Shuttle.

The basic design architecture is quite suspect. Only the shuttle has
ever been built with the load on the side of the rocket motors.
Everything else puts the load in front of the motors. Maybe after all
these years, billions of dollars and multiple lives lost it just might
be dawning on some people that the basic design architecture has
fundamental flaws.

Get the Chinese's involved they will have a fix for it in a few hours.


LOL, I doubt it. One thing the Chinese have demonstrated is a great
disregard for individual human lives. If dozens, hundreds, thousands or
even millions are sacrificed for the Good Of China well then so it must
be in there way of doing things. Chinese industry is hardly the
paragon of quality and reliability.
