Those words were not good news for those who worked at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. They may have been spoken in other space flights, but, the dilemma of Apollo 13 comes to mind as the most urgent.

Once NASA launches a maned space flight from Kennedy Space Center in Florida, everything thereafter is controlled by “Houston”. Good news, America’s good news, bad news, Houston’s problem.

We now have only two shuttle flights left in America’s space program. The shuttle Endeavor is scheduled to launch on April 29, and the shuttle Atlantis is scheduled to launch later this summer. After that, we turn over space exploration to the Russians.

This happens when politics and science "mix".

Just another piece of American history being dismantled and eliminated.

Charlton Heston screamed for the wrong reason ... the apes are inbred socialists (that's the only logical conclusion for the insanity being foisted upon us)

The book/movie The Time Machine also comes to mind these days...

(Although now it's clear that the reason for the books being unused and crumbling is because of things like Kindle and Sony Reader...)
