Re: What? No talk about the Mars Rover?
And now we have the first casulty of the Bush program- the Hubble Space Telescope. all the shuttle flights from now until thye are retired will be going to ISS. When Hubble needs servicing again, it won't get it.

Re: What? No talk about the Mars Rover?
Actually they were talking about having to phase out the Hubble before this. It's more a result of the Columbia disaster then any change in priorities.

Re: What? No talk about the Mars Rover?
Given the republican party is unable to commit any money to the space program, I've heard many calling for its dismantling after Columbia and after bush's speech, I doubt any of his plan will happen.

Re: What? No talk about the Mars Rover?
Sure hope they restore contact with the rover. Those Mars missions seem to have a lot of bad luck...

Re: What? No talk about the Mars Rover?
I sure hope if they can figure out what's wrong with it they'll be able to fix it (if it's software of course. ) |
