POPSAres I-X Launch: NASA's New Rocket Blasts Off On Test Flight The prototype moon rocket took off through a few clouds from a former shuttle launch pad at 11:30 a.m., 3 1/2 hours late because of bad weather. Launch controllers had to retest the rocket systems after more than 150 lightning strikes were reported around the pad overnight. Then they had to wait out interfering rain clouds, the same kind that thwarted Tuesday's try. The ballistic flight did not come close to reaching space and, as expected, lasted a mere two minutes. That's how long it took for the first-stage solid-fuel booster to burn out and separate from the mock upper stage 25 miles up. But it will take months to analyze all the data from the approximately 725 pressure, strain and acceleration sensors. Parachutes popped open and dropped the booster into the Atlantic, where recovery ships waited

POPSWho Killed Detroit? "Are we better off now that these things are made by foreigners? Are we better off now that we have ceased to be self-sufficient? Are we better off now that the real wages of our workers and median income of our families no longer grow as they once did? Are we better off now that manufacturing, for the first time in U.S. history, employs fewer workers than government? We no longer build commercial ships. We have but one airplane company, and it outsources. China produces our computers. And if GM goes Chapter 11, America will soon be out of the auto business. Our politicians and pundits may not understand what is going on. Historians will have no problem explaining the decline and fall of the Americans."

POPSMitsubishi makes bid for "most evil corporation around" title Because when you look at the prospect of imminent species extinction, OF COURSE your first thought is "hey, I can make money off this!" :mad: More: Fish stocks across the world are in retreat because of over-fishing. One study suggests oceans will be stripped clean of all fish by 2048. Bluefin is imminently at risk of commercial extinction. The wildlife charity WWF forecasts that breeding stocks of the fish that migrate from the Atlantic to spawn will be wiped out in the Mediterranean by 2012… conservationists suspect the actual catch is 60,000 tonnes, four times the maximum that marine scientists recommend. After studying catches and sales, Charles Clover, the environmental journalist behind the film The End of the Line, believes that businesses involved in the ransacking are deep-freezing 20,000 tonnes of bluefin a year for later use…

POPSChinese Astronaut Speaks Peace in Space Well, if these guys intercept and blow up another satellite, no one is going into space. We, the USA, crashed into a derelict Russian satellite at 1,000's of MPH--alot of pieces and parts here. And the Waldo looking Kim Jung-Il--is out of control. North Korea said they actually put a satellite in space. USA said, "Nope".......We had better be nice to China; the USA will have to beg for rides for the next 5+ years from Russia and maybe China. We'll piss off Russia, I mean former KGB Putin. -------------- Personally, I believe we should keep part of the Shuttle fleet operational until the Ares program is complete. These shuttles were designed for 100 flight services lives and they have only completed a 1/3 of that time. Keep one or two shuttles active and use the remaining as a parts store. Remember the 70's when we didn't have a space program after Apollo and before the Shuttle became operational. NASA is doing it again. Too Much Down Time.

POPSThanks To Federal Grants, Lansing Michigan Is New Hot Spot Destination “This is à la carte airline — you pay two bucks for a soft drink, six bucks for beer and wine, $2 to $5 for snacks, $5 to watch TV, and $15 for the first piece of luggage,” Glazer said. Modeled after discount carriers such as Europe’s Ryanair, JetAmerica also charges passengers an extra $10 to choose a seat assignment. Despite the $9 price, the airline estimates the average ticket to be between $71 and $79.
