Doesnt this deserve more attention? The report certainly considers
the budget a major factor. Seems to me Clinton/Gore failed NASA.
What do you think?
According to the CAIB report, the backsliding to the same old
bureaucratic inertia started within a few years after the first damning
report was issued on the Challenger disaster.
By the time Clinton became President in 1993, NASA was pretty much back
to business as usual.
