Quating Steve Lindsey - NASA Liar : "NASA spent several years studying
architectures and researching every available commercial rocket"
I believe he (Steve) is right, although I'm starting to question the wisdom
of using the SRB for the Ares's first stage. It seems it's generating more
problems than it solves. Why couldn't they have taken another liquid fueled
engine? What options are there, anyone know?
NASA spent several years studying architectures, and then ignored the
results of all those studies, and came up with The Shaft in a
sixty-day studied designed to provide a foreordained conclusion.
