I really don't think that this time arround it will suffer much of a delay, this time there is the space station, and I know that the astronaughts up there will not be abandonned. They will need supplies and can't stay up there for two years waiting for replacements!

If it were me, I'd try to get another shuttle up as soon as posible. This kind of 'action' would both reassure the people and honor the memories and dreams of the fallen heroes!

..after all, "Delay and demoralize" is a tactic most used on an 'enemy' why would anyone use a tactic like that on friends and family?

Have a good day, CHeers!
