[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] As to the Apollo missions and the space race: Both the Russians and us Americans lost complete crews [b]on the launchpad![/b] NASA is not less competent today, it just does not have the congressional, presidential or public support of the 60's NASA. If NASA had the literally unlimited recources of Starfleet, the shuttles would still be flying: there would just be many more shuttles. Remember: the space shuttles are the most advanced machines ever built. Literally millions of tiny things could go wrong on any given mission and the fact that we have such a high success rate on shuttle missions demonstrates the skill and professionalism of both NASA and the astronauts that fly the missions. Think about all the little things that could go wrong on a airplane and the hundreds of people that work on a plane each year the next time you take a flight and [b]then[/b] remark how lax NASA is. Don't belittle the lives of those lost by insinuating any less. [/QB][/QUOTE]
