The external tank was painted in the initial missions. *The decision not to paint it, saved significant payload weight, but also allowed frost to stay adhered longer, carrying insulating foam with it. Wrong, painting it is not a fix. It would not have prevented the Colombia accident |

The frost did not penetrate the paint to any significant extent. *This means it could shear off at lower speeds. Wrong, frost does not "penetrate" the foam. The foam came of because of voids in the foam. |

Pour the existing shuttle money ito this, but rater than give away the rights to technology...... NASA would license them with 100% of the $$ going back into space exploration Over time NASA funding would grow as a trust fund. Better still, pave the roads in Afganistan, then get out. *Then* devote that money to making a frontier, rather than chewing the same ground. Make it apply to ISS devlopments too, in the now unlikely event anything usefuul comes from ISS Cooperation is never a lost cause. Let's capture Apophis, and make it a space base... compete with radiation shielding. THINK OUT OF THE BOX the box isnt your friend! Get off the sofa, out of the control room, and explore. David A.

It may have sealed the surface of the foam, it didn't fill the voids in the
foam. The voids still existed with or without the paint. -- Greg Moore Ask me about lily, an RPI based CMC. "dlzc" wrote in message ...
