NASA has know about the electric windmill car since almost 1980 - Ron Baalke ) and others at NASA kept quiet about cops and kids burning to death in rear end car wrecks. When they knew about the electric windmill car and its suppression by the government they work for. Now they let Astronauts burn to death. Culture and mentality of our USA Oil Genocide caused NASA top brass to cover up the suppression of the electric windmill car and sell out for Shuttles instead of 700 Moon Bases and light year travels... http://www.inventor-warp-speed.com/ This orwellian society is sicker than George Orwell could have ever imagined!

The meeting participants noted the significant milestone of the 1,000th day of permanent human presence aboard the Space Station during a live telephone conversation with the current crew, Expedition 7 Commander, Russian cosmonaut Yuri Malenchenko, and NASA Station Science Officer, Ed Lu. The Heads of Agency (HOA) were briefed on the preliminary plans for the return to flight of the U.S. Space Shuttle. They agreed to review and update the Space Station Program Action Plan, adopted in December 2002, in order to realize the objectives of the program as soon as possible. The HOA agreed the Space Station Program Action Plan should remain the basis for proceeding with selection of a Station configuration. The HOA agreed to meet in Moscow in mid-October to discuss specific Space Station implementation plans after taking into account NASA's Return to Flight Activities. Appreciation was expressed for the strong support for the Space Station Program by all partner agencies, and in particular by the Russian Aviation and Space Agency, for resolutely providing for continuing human presence on the Station after the tragic loss of the Space Shuttle Columbia and her courageous crew. The International Space Station partnership looks forward to continuing critical Russian support for general Station operations, logistics, crew transportation and rescue capability until the Space Shuttle returns to flight. The partners expressed great enthusiasm for NASA's Return to Flight, the timely resumption of Space Station assembly, and opportunities for enhanced use of this world-class research facility. Investigator Fears NASA Won't Change Columbia Investigator Worried NASA Won't Change Culture, Allowing 'Faulty Reasoning' to Prevail The Associated Press CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. Aug. 1 - A Nobel Prize-winning member of the board investigating the space shuttle Columbia disaster says he fears NASA won't change its culture, possibly leading to yet another accident. The "same faulty reasoning" that led to the 1986 Challenger accident also led to Columbia, said Douglas Osheroff, one of the 13 board members wrapping up the report on the Columbia accident. "No matter how good the report looks, if we don't do something to change the way NASA makes its decisions, I would say that we will have been whistling in the wind," Osheroff told The Associated Press in a telephone interview this week. "At the moment, I'm in a state of depression," he said from his office at Stanford University. Several Columbia board members have said the space agency must make dramatic changes in its culture, but Osheroff is pessimistic. "Look, I think it's been clear for a long time that what has to change is not NASA's policies and procedures or management structure. I suppose they have to change as well, but it's culture," he said. "Culture is a very funny thing, of course. It is the way people intuitively behave to a situation." Just last week, NASA Administrator Sean O'Keefe vowed to change an agency atmosphere that has made some workers fearful of speaking up about potentially life-threatening hazards. But Osheroff's own experience tells him how hard it will be to get NASA to change. "I was at Bell Laboratories at the time of the breakup of the Bell system, and they had industrial psychologists come in trying to change the culture," he said. "I don't think it was at all successful, at least certainly not in the research area where I was." In NASA's case, Osheroff and other board members have noted the similarities between February's Columbia accident, in which seven astronauts died on their way home, and the Challenger tragedy, which killed seven on their way to space. Challenger's loss also led to a hard-hitting report on NASA. Yet, Osheroff notes, "the same faulty reasoning led to both accidents, right? I mean, in both cases, it was a failure to recognize the potential hazards posed by an in-flight anomaly." With Challenger, faulty O-ring seals in the solid-fuel rocket boosters were to blame. With Columbia, it was foam insulation that broke off the fuel tank and gouged a hole in the shuttle's left wing, letting in the searing gases of re-entry. In both cases, worried engineers were not heard or were ignored. Foam repeatedly broke off shuttles during launch, but the problem was never fixed. With Columbia's final launch on Jan. 16 the biggest foam chunk ever struck with deadly force. Boston College sociology professor Diane Vaughan, author of "The Challenger Launch Decision," sympathizes with the worried Osheroff. "Challenger, like Columbia, was an institutional failure. That is, it wasn't just a matter of the decision-making structure. It had to do with the entire organization and its culture, and the critical parts of that really didn't get changed," Vaughan said Thursday night. She suggested NASA's leaders "may not understand how their organization works and therefore may not know how to fix it, and it's up to the board in its report to point them in the right direction." From the start, NASA head O'Keefe has promised to carry out all of the accident board's recommendations. Already, he has begun setting up an engineering and safety center in Virginia to take an independent look at a wide range of problems and trends. But Osheroff calls it "easy to be receptive six months after a major accident. The question is whether it's going to last." The physicist, who won the Nobel in 1996, was named late to the Columbia board after the chairman decided he wanted some heavyweight scientists. Osheroff was a student of the late Richard Feynman, another Nobel-winning physicist who was an outspoken NASA critic when he served on the Challenger commission. Columbia's accident board chairman, retired Navy Adm. Harold Gehman Jr., declined to respond to Osheroff's remarks, and attempts to reach other board members were unsuccessful. (Members have been urged to keep a low profile until the report is out.) But one panel member who spoke on condition of anonymity called Osheroff's points "very valid." "It's a culture that's been built up since the beginning of the shuttle program, probably," said the board member, who did not want to be identified for fear of upsetting Gehman. "They're going to have to break some glass to get it back to where it needs to be." NASA's chief is bracing for harsh criticism and has been warning employees it will be "really ugly." "I'm trying to find the Kevlar suit that I had somewhere," O'Keefe told Kennedy Space Center workers earlier this summer. Key members of Congress have asked Gehman to reconvene his panel in a year to see if NASA is heeding its advice, a suggestion the members embrace given NASA's tendency to shelve shuttle program reports. "NASA takes it and says, 'Thanks for your input into manned spaceflight,' and then nothing happens," Air Force Brig. Gen. Duane Deal, a board member, observed at a news conference in mid-July. Osheroff worries that NASA's new task force that will assess when shuttles can return to space may feel pressure to hurry because of the needs of the international space station. That's why it's vital to reconvene the board as often as necessary, he said. On the Net: Kobe Bryant, Gen Powell, Rev King of sexual assault... Ellen Goodman lets cops and kids burn and burn to death in gasoline 22 years after I invent the electric windmill car. Ellen Goodman also let Blacks rape white women for the last 22 years... Orwellian statistics and hidden camera top secrets know this, same as they know about the electric windmill car - this orwellian society is sicker than George Orwell could have ever imagined, thanks to Ellen Goodman and the rest of the observers. -This orwellian society is sicker than George Orwell could have ever imagined http://www.inventor-warp-speed.com/ |
