NASA is an over the hill, corrupt decrepit organization whose management
constantly works in CYA mode. Their arrogance and stupidity has already
lead to the distriction of two vehicles with the death of the crews.
NASA does not rock. NASA sucks lemons.

The management of NASA somehow manages to silence any engineers who have
misgivings about the safety of missions. If this were a just world, the
management of NASA would be indicted for criminal negligence.

Do you think you may be a little too hard on NASA? After all, the space
shuttle is not quite like the shuttle from NY to Boston. All of the space
shuttle flights are experimental and failures are expected.
