I am waiting for the launch myself. Every launch is job security for me. We are hoping at work that the program is extended until the Ares and Orion start.

When a future civilization looks back upon us like we look at the Greeks, they will recognize our Space programs as our most important accomplishment.

At risk of sounding like I just walked in from DU... Imagine what our space program would be like if we didn't have to worry about people running planes into skyscrapers. Imagine what our space program would like if we could spend the entire DoD budget on getting off this rock and finding another one.

The space program could double if we just cut out the graft and waste in the Welfare system.

I've always wanted to see one, but never bothered to take a day off when they were during the week. Just my luck it'd be put off due to weather or some shit. I of course had to be busy this weekend. |

You must be doing better than we are slightly north. I stepped out a couple minutes prior, and there were nothing but a bunch of useless, impotent thunderheads that direction, anyway. |

Anyone else still waiting on a certain "oil-producing" region to pull off something like a moon landing or space launch.
