Hubble Not Worth The Risk
Sen. Barbara A. Mikulski, Democrat Dim Bulb Senator from Maryland, says "The future of the Hubble should not be decided by one man in a NASA back room without a transparent process."
You want an transparent process, lady? How about this.
In response to the CAIB report, NASA decided that non-ISS missions aren't worth the risk, and to the best of my knowledge they have all been scrapped. Maybe she didn't get the memo.
Update:
I've been searching for an hour through the CAIB report to find chapter and verse on this, but so far nothing. Still, since Administrator O'Keefe threw this all back into the lap of the former CAIB Chairman, I'm fairly confident that I'm in the right.
