The shuttle is a dinosaur. Columbia first flew in 1981. It was designed and built in the 1970's (30 years ago). The booster rockets are even older design. Think of how many trillions of dollars have been spent on research and development in the last 30 plus years. It has undoubtedly produced some amazing new technology.....but where is this new technology???
Consider this timeline of quantum leaps: 1903 - The Wright Brothers 1st flight at Kitty Hawk. FAST FORWARD 24 YEARS TO- 1927 - Lindberg flies the Atlantic non-stop FAST FORWARD 20 YEARS TO- 1947 - Chuck Yeager breaks the sound barrier FAST FORWARD 22 YEARS TO- 1969 - Neil Armstrong walks on the moon. THAT WAS 33 YEARS AGO. WHAT'S HAPPENED SINCE THEN??? NOTHING??? WHERE'S THE NEXT "QUANTUM LEAP"??? TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS HAVE BEEN SPENT ON R&D SINCE THEN. BUT WE ARE LED TO BELIEVE THAT THE 30 YEAR OLD SPACE SHUTTLE IS THE LATEST CUTTING-EDGE OF TECHNOLOGY. DO YOU BELIEVE THIS? I SUBMIT THAT THE ENTIRE SPACE SHUTTLE PROGRAM IS ONLY A SHOW CARRIED ON TO MAINTAIN THE ILLUSION THAT SOMEHOW PROGRESS STOPPED 30 PLUS YEARS AGO. WE HAVE SECRET TECHNOLOGY THAT IN TERMS OF PERFORMANCE, WOULD MAKE THE SPACE SHUTTLE LOOK LIKE A 1920'S BIPLANE! THE QUESTION IS: WHERE IS IT AND WHAT'S IT GOING TO BE USED FOR? OR...WHAT HAS IT ALREADY BEEN USED FOR? Nakano _____________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful.
