Rocket Scientists!?
The rocket scientists at NASA still can’t figure out how to make the foam on the fuel tank stick.
After reviewing tape from the launch of Discovery NASA has decided to not go ahead with the next shuttle launch. This is because there was video of foam shedding off of the fuel tank during Discovery’s assent yesterday. The guys at NASA can send rovers to Mars, and make all the rocket engines work to lift the shuttle into space, but foam has got the best of them. If I was them I would be embarrased. Now, don’t get me wrong. I don’t hate NASA, I am all for exploring space and the science that goes with it but I want it done as safely as possible. The things that kill astronauts should be the stuff that can never be prevented and even then we should try to prevent it.
