Sen. Sam Brownback said Monday that he wants to hold a hearing on recent
problems within the space-shuttle program and whether NASA's remaining fleet
could or should be retired sooner than the current target date of 2010.

Brownback, a Kansas Republican who chairs the Science, Technology and Space
subcommittee of the Senate Commerce Committee -- which oversees NASA --
questioned whether the large amount of money the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration spends on the shuttle, combined with safety and maintenance
issues for the aging fleet, is worthwhile as the agency tries to reshape itself
for more ambitious exploration.
