But what did they do with it? Nothin'.<br /><br />I don't know that we need to spend billions of dollars so a handful of PhDs can play monkey in a can for a few months. But at least the government could have the grace to do something actually effective, or step out of the way.Brian Dunbarhttp://space4commerce.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-74283257522367035822010-09-08T18:50:01.157-04:002010-09-08T18:50:01.157-04:00Bubblehead Les, we've not only decided to shut...Bubblehead Les, we've not only decided to shut down Scientific curiosity, we've decided to shut down pretty much everything.

But hey, according to the Anointed One's End of Space Policy, the only important thing the U.S. needs to put into orbit are Weather and Eco-satellites to track Ozone holes and Global Warming.
