CAN WE BE BLUNT HERE? SpaceProjects.com doesn’t pull punches when talking about NASA’s, er, “questionable” activities.

This article was interesting, though. I remember Andrew Beal’s first angry missive, but I hadn’t seen this follow-up. A lot of what he says about NASA is true enough, but I still have to wonder if the collapse of the launch services market after Iridium, et al, went belly-up didn’t have just a little bit to do with BA’s demise, despite his claims to the contrary.

It’s too bad he didn’t partner up with Robert Bigelow, who just might be looking for a (privately owned) launcher sometime in the near future.
