From The Belly Of The Beast

Keith Cowing has a wealth of (mostly anonymous) commentary from NASA employees on the Gehman Report.

It’s pretty depressing. After reading this, I’m not sure that NASA is salvageable. The only way to fix it, really, is to abolish the agency, and create a new one, hiring the best people from the old.

Fortunately, what NASA does is becoming ever less relevant to America’s future in space.

Absurd

The authorities in Lansing just figured out, after only a little over a quarter of a century, that there’s a cryonics facility in Clinton Township, Michigan.

Now, of course, they’ve decided that they have to regulate it, but they don’t know how. They think that it’s a combination mortuary and cemetery (which, for some unexplained reason, can’t both legally be done in the same place). Of course, it’s neither, but they can’t suspend any new patients until it gets sorted out.
