I don't think there is any way to change group names, only create new ones
when needed.

I'd wait and see before jumping to any conclusions myself anyway. You will
have a new administration by then.

Yeah; it'll end up the same as the George H Bush idea.

i believe the shuttle will at minimum fly its current list of missions
unless it kills again......

hopefully the next adminstration almost certinally obama will take man
to LEO off nasa, and have them contrat it out.......

let private industry do the job, cheaper better faster.

private industry will do better cause nasa priorities are, pork, jobs
and payoffs

There's been too much of that and more, for sure. Nevertheless,
negligence often causes the crashes of large airliners (which, BTW,
have no crew escape systems). Passengers and crew alike rely on heads-
up maintenance, take-off, and landing procedures. In short, management
with integrity makes the difference, whether it's in the government
sector or the commercial sector.

Methinks SSS will go into SSH, as for what takes its place I couldn't
say.
I suggest Sci Space Craft Current as a candidate - S squared, C
squared, which kinda rolls of the tongue and covers a multitude of
space hardware. ;-p

Thoughts anyone?

How about sci.space.courtroom or sci.space.competition?

Beats the current sci.space.chaos, in my opinion.

airliners arent launced to orbit as loaded bombs. so safety
comparisons arent comparable.... someday passenger modules will add
more safety, the trouble is most airliner accidents are takeoff and
landing.....

frankly i think nationwide mag lev rail transit will be the future of
passenger traffic across the us soon.

terrorists sooner or later will SAM a couple airliners out of the sky,
and end the airline industry as we know it. besides rail would reduce
high altitude pollution

Care to explain "loaded bombs?" If you don't like the explosions in
some high-altitude airliner disintegrations (optically recorded, BTW),
substitute "large cargo aircraft," such as tankers and C-5A types.
Many of those have occurred also.

(I didn't even mention the explosions of large crew-carrying aircraft
attributed to terrorist-style carry-on and/or planted bombs. How were
those permitted?)

My point was that without competence and integrity in management,
particularly with respect to heads-up launch, landing, and preparation/
maintenance types, there will be little difference between the
commercial and government sectors. I'm not talking design and
development here, obviously, unless such was unending.
