[QUOTE]Originally posted by The359: [QB] 1) I don't think the physics of reentering the atmosphere give a damn about 'bureacrats and number punchers'. The shuttle was destroyed because of an accident, not because someone in the government said so. Quite frankly, there was nothing that could have been done to avoid this. Yes, granted, maybe they could have had an alternative, but they didn't know that anything was that wrong in the first place. 2) Read my name better 3) NASA cancelled its funding of the X-33 prototype. The X-33 was, as I said before, a 1/2 scale prototype of the VentureStar, which would become the next generation shuttle. Lockheed Martin has decided to continue work on the VentureStar (but abandon the X-33) even after NASA pulled out their funding. VentureStar is now a private, civilian project. [/QB][/QUOTE]
