I agree. Not everything is a political cause or should be politicized. A shuttle exploded during Reagan admin when we pumped millions into the program...a shuttle disintegrated upon reentry during the Bush administration. Now this during Obambi admin...sometimes sh!t just happens...I guess to some every event is a political event

Wondering if the supply capsule had any kind of
emergency deployment provision?
It’s not man rated yet, but it would have been good
to know that it worked.

These guys are pretty good at what they do despite the occasional accident. Their accidents just happen to be very spectacular.

I wonder how many here could make the calculations for the Juno spacecraft. Launch a craft out past the orbit of mars where it begins to fall back toward the sun, coming to within a couple hundred miles of the earth like two years later for a gravity slingshot off to Jupiter.

During Reagan administration we only had about 20 years of experience, now we have had about 40. WE should know what we are doing. Just saying.
