I would say that even private industry lobs into lower space are less
inspiring to most people. My point is that if NASA wants funding,
they need to sell their plans more aggressively to the public. Oh
yeah, and have a plan, that would be good, too...


I'd have to disagree.

Yes, I think NASA could use some inspiring plans, but honestly I'm more
thrilled by private industry right now.

I have a FAR better chance of flying into space on a private industry craft
than I do on an NASA spacecraft.

Pretty pictures are nice, but they're even nicer when I get to take them
first hand.


Maybe I'm alone on this one. I just don't see anything necessarily
standing in the way of private industry over the past ten or so years
and there isn't much to show for it.

Do you want polite or do you want sincere?

NASA is the largest potential customer for private industry, and NASA
made it clear to private indusry they werent wanted......
