Rescuing NASA




Larry Bell, a professor at the University of Houston, heads their graduate program in space architecture.  According to Dr. Bell, NASA needs rescuing from "terminal public apathy."

His recommendation?  " . . the government should commercialize all future launch vehicle development and operations.  NASA can then direct its full attention to doing things it's very good at, such as planning future robotic and human planetary exploration missions . ."

Kennedy Space Center was a huge hit with our family when we visited a couple of weeks ago.
