Artemis Rocket Debacle

[yyz]

We worry about every nickel and dime the government wastes, so why do we still have this shitty space program?

35 billion dollars on this chunk of shit program? Why? And they're using thirty year old spare parts from the shuttle program???

:mj07:

Who's in charge? Emmitt Brown?

:facepalm:

Trump said today if it wasnt for him NASA would not have this program,

Private is the way to go to space. Not on taxpayer cash

Just curious....what exactly is the reason to have a space program? Is it for military defense? We are never going to inhabit anywhere but Earth in my opinion. Maybe I am just na?ve for lack of giving a shit, but somebody tell me the benefits of a space program.

Maybe we really never went to moon in the 60's:lol:

I just know we "somehow" put people on the Moon fifty plus years ago, and the technology has barely improved? We cant launch a rocket in the rain? We're using thirty year old parts on the thing?

Seriously?

No launch yesterday. Fuel leak.
