Comments on: NASA delays Discovery shuttle launch

Faulty fuel sensors in Discovery's external tank postpone the space shuttle's expected launch until at least Saturday.

Safety First!

Scrubbing this launch is the logical thing to do. NASA can only learn from its previous mistakes -- from this flight onwards getting all systems at "go" should be the only way for go-for-launch. The time here now is 15:51 and listening and watching.

You pays what get!

Since the shuttle was built to the lowest possible bids and tenders steve buscemi's line from the movie armageddon springs to mind! As always you get what you ask for and pays for what you gets!

Sad but true

The Shuttle is a shadow of what it was supposed to be. The Vietnam war ate the money that was supposed to go the the Shuttle (not to mention Apollo 18, 19 and 20 plus the planned space and moon station!) leaving only half of the vehicle re-usable. Surprise surprise, the problem was caused by the External Tank again.

Non -Destructive Analyses!

From a Non-Destructive Testing standpoint -- given the possibilities for "crack propagation" or "shear" due to the impact that was sustained by the space shuttle Discovery; perhaps it will be interesting to know the extent to which NASA has gone to determine the integrity of the area of impact!
