Why can't you naysayers focus on the recent raging successes with the Mars landers, Galileo, and Cassini-Huygens. This is a tiny little project compared to those giants!

Exactly.

What was it with the Mars landers again? Oh yeah! They continued to be operational past the time NASA engineers gave them in terms of longevity on Mars. They had to do something right then.

Yes, you guys are right, the Mars landers really outshine losing a shuttle on re-entry.

GOOOOO NASA!

Sorry, I guess I am a bad guy. Thinking pissing away billions, and people's lives, for the new and improved 'cost effect NASA' is a bad thing.

Hey I didn't red the thread I just could never resist a good slapping :)

Personally I think spending all that money to look at rocks in space is a great use of resources. I mean it's not like the worlds starving millions could use that money, right?

Come on people. If you don't figure out how the universe works, you are not going to be around in it too long.

We are probably the Dodo birds of the Universe. Enjoy you short stay....
