Nasa considers shuttle sell-off
An independent panel has criticised Nasa for overspending and has described its running of the International Space Station as "not credible".

typical, Government decides to sell off secure quality based cost structures in favour of the corporate dollar, which is naturally focused and based on profits, advertising and cost savings.

They did it in Aussie when the Govt opened tenders to private companies that bought the originally Government funded Natural Gas supplies/Phones/Buses etc etc.... and service and quality went downhill fast.

Imagine what will happen when they start "cost saving" with thousands of tons of Hydrogen and Oxygen fueled Spacecraft. *sigh*
