Apollo II or Freedom II
While VSE offers a chance to revitalize space operations, I can't
avoid the horrible feeling that it will run into the same problems we've seen before. Remember space station Freedom? "It's a bold step forward in the conquest of space!" "We'll advance technology, gain knowledge, and show off America's skills." "We will invire the whole world to participate in this great project" "......... because we can't afford it on our own" "We'll launch the modules on the Shuttle" "------as soon as the Russians launch the first one." "We won't have any of the problems of Mir." "and we can hold twice as many people.." "........when it's finished" "..........whenever that is." "We will keep American austronauts in space" ".........one of them, anyway" "..........if he buys a ticket." "Stations are boring. Lets redo Apollo instead." I hope VSE will keep going by itself, but I already see budget pressures and calls for partners to "share in the glory". -- John Halpenny |
