NASA is having a certified Bad Hair Day: Sabotage, Drunk Cosmonauts, Theft – what else should we expect?
Several sources reported that a computer that is supposed to fly aboard shuttle Endeavour in less than two weeks, was sabotaged.
A NASA panel reported that drunk astronauts were allowed to fly despite warnings about their alcohol consumption. I guess no cops can catch them for DUI up there.
Compared to this the loss of $94M in office equipment is just petty theft. Here’s my favorite explanation, this one referring to a missing laptop, valued $4,265:
This computer, although assigned to me, was being used on board the International Space Station. I was informed that it was tossed overboard to be burned up in the atmosphere when it failed.
Your tax money at work.
