Hubble


I am just naive enough to go to the White House blog to see if they posted on the Hubble mission. Silly me.

I'm proud to be in the space program. I wonder if in the busy-ness of the fiscal deal, middle east mess, Iraq and all the bazillions of issues if there's time to look up and wonder.

Shuttle is pretty green, you know. The rocket fuel in the main tank is liquid hydrogen and oxygen and burns off as water vapor. Maybe if we can get into orbit on water... we can jam at 235mph on a race track? or even get me to the nearest HEB.

I think the White House is too busy trying to figure out how to print money faster.

They need a V8 on that printin' machine puppy!
