The Senate is on the verge of killing the suborbital passenger business: http://www.transterrestrial.com/arch...86.html#004386 "Those one-time boosters say the compromise version that emerged Thursday from a House-Senate "preconference" would actually kill off private spaceflight by holding the industry to an unmeetable safety standard for passengers and crew members." http://msnbc.msn.com/id/6201543/ Control freaks?

With this ng, you should probably make sure everyone knows whether you're
joking or not. JJ Robinson II Houston, TX I was joking ![]() It is pecular the way some people oppose space travel though. Everytime someone rants and raves about how the money could be spent elsewhere other than in space travel, I wonder what gets them so worked up about spending such a small slice of the government's pie on space. I don't believe for a moment that their are aliens among us, but after all of this, I wonder why there is a constituence to keep us out of space. When all the probably explainations are ruled out, that leaves only the improbable. I wonder sometimes if the space critics really are robots controlled by aliens. (jokingly of course) Tom |
