    "Prof" MOZ, it cost about $200M and there is no abort system because there are no people on board. PEG, your comments are too inane for comment. Ronald John: …and you don't comprehend complexities, you simply don't.

    They train for this. They run simulated screwups and learn to sit there and make sure the data is coming in, stored, and managed properly for the investigation. This is the launch center at KSC and if it were closer to the ground they would be coordinating with whatever assets were required.

    Only employ underpaid, overworked 30 somethings with limited resources then dump them later? Refuse proven advice from engineers who put men on the moon and brought them back alive? Hob nob with tyrannical, liberal socialists bent on destroying the US economy? Yes, fearless leader! So brilliant you are! Stupid Americans! They will never know or find out about your superior South African intellect formed by father-son relationship after divorce! Just sell NASA another one… Ooohhh, how wonderful for us! Their money is good and their boss was told by big boss potus to just give you more and more and more! Tee-hee-hee-hee! More vodka!
