space suit hazards were ignored
On the network news tonight the near drownding of the astronaut caused by a space suit malfunction was revealing. the water leak was known but ignored just a week earlier, and nasa currently only has 12 space suits. so few spares are available.
nasa learned nothing from challenger and columbia, find a hazard and pass it off as no big deal. my prediction.... with management like this we are going to lose ISS or at minimum kill some astronauts, because mission STILL comes before safety |

This is not true. The leak was detected but the consensus was that it was a leaky water bottle. That was a wrong conclusion but not any DELIBERATE coverup or similar as suggested by the posting of this person. nasa learned nothing from challenger and columbia, find a hazard and pass it off as no big deal. Space faring *IS* dangerous, and mistakes accur. Nobody is saying that NASA people are gods. Happily NASA people aren't like Mr haller, that makes a mistakes every time he opens his mouth to say something. my prediction.... don't give a damm about your predictions.

In article ,
says... lets review nasa ignored o ring erosion and challenger died....... NASA ignored foam loss and columbia crew died nasa ignored water leak in suit and astronaut nearly died. in all cases hazards were made known to nasa but called no biggies. what will be the NEXT loss or near loss reason? Typical Bob oversimplifying arguments until they're practically meaningless. Are you oversimplifying deliberately, or can you just not grasp anything more complex? All of these incidents require long reports. Even this "relatively simple" EVA anomaly required a 222 page report: http://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/fi...ntrusion_Misha p_Investigation_Report.pdf If you do not actually read the reports, then why should anyone listen to your opinions? Without a basis in fact, you're just babbling on without saying anything meaningful (let's call this Bobberting). Jeff -- "the perennial claim that hypersonic airbreathing propulsion would magically make space launch cheaper is nonsense -- LOX is much cheaper than advanced airbreathing engines, and so are the tanks to put it in and the extra thrust to carry it." - Henry Spencer |

a good summary NASAWATCH
NASA vows to fix problems that led to spacesuit leak A fundamental misunderstanding of how water behaves in the cooling system of a spacesuit operating in weightlessness, combined with institutional complacency and a perceived pressure to avoid delays, resulted in a frightening, potentially fatal close call last summer when water flooded a spacewalker's helmet outside the International Space Station, NASA managers said Wednesday.

The problem Bob isn't just that you're wrong, but HOW you're wrong. The issue there wasn't so much they ignored it. They misjudged it. There's a fundamental difference. NASA ignored foam loss and columbia crew died Again, hardly. They far from ignored it. They were very aware of it. Again, ignoring is very different from misjudging. nasa ignored water leak in suit and astronaut nearly died. Again, no one is ignoring it. in all cases hazards were made known to nasa but called no biggies. Have you read the CAIB or other reports? Seriously. what will be the NEXT loss or near loss reason? -- Greg D. Moore http://greenmountainsoftware.wordpress.com/ CEO QuiCR: Quick, Crowdsourced Responses. http://www.quicr.net |
