Up Country \ USA: The Columbia - NASA's ticket to Re-recognization
Let's face it, no one gives a damn about NASA anymore - until now. After
the space race, and the controversial "moon landing"
no one gave a damn anymore about NASA, because nothing important was happening.
Slowly less and less of us cared about what the whole space program was doing,
so why not have a little tragedy to remind people about NASA?
I would bet that this goes only to the high commanders of NASA. They don't
tell anyone and also pay off anyone that knows about a little "sabotage"
that would make the Columbia blow up upon re-entry. It was probably lucky
for them that a piece of foam fell off whatever it fell off of and hit the
space shuttle. I find it kind of hard to believe that a piece of foam would
do that, unless it weighed at least 500 pounds, and just happened to hit
a weak panel on there that was cracked already. What would a measly 7 lives
matter to the billions and billions of dollars and regaining the public's
appreciation after a 20 year hiatus? Absolutely nothing.
There was a great plus to having shuttle and human remains scatter over 2
states. Millions of people will feel for them and NASA then, too. What a
great country this is. Blah page filler.
