Gross Misuse of Nation's Resources ( Shuttle & x37B)

Gross Misuse of Nation's Resources Shuttle & x37b

Termination of shuttle is a gross misuse of the Nation's resources.  We must get the attention of Congress to get either the shuttle or an equivalent vehicle flying as soon as possible.  To accomplish this we must educate the average person to the unique capabilities of this system.  To this end we must get the benefits of this concept in the minds of the average American so they will demand the restart of this system/equivalent.    Amazingly, we have a near equivalent, the x37b but the idiots we have in DC did not even consider the Boeing proposal--the x37b is operational----google x37 & read the details!!!!!!  Boeing proposal  ( x37c)---link below.  The x37b is an amazing vehicle also!     

The media has not done a story on what could be accomplished with the x37 system operated by DOD.   The fact we are paying the russians 72 m per ride on soyuz is totally NUTS.     To get this changed we need bloggers to get out the word so we can get a large number of people to contact the media constantly and demand that we use the vehicles we have & stop wasting money !!To get this done we need programing in every state on radio/tv bring out the benefits of the program.  This will require each of you to constantly contact your local stations encouraging /demanding programs supporting this approach.  It is up to you, we are Americans and can make this happen.

Having trouble viewing this email? Click here Bobby, Barack Obama, Eric Holder and Nancy Pelosi have united in their efforts to open our borders and grant amnesty to all. Their total lack of understanding regarding the situation at our border is unbelievable. The federal government and Washington bureaucrats have turned their backs on their duty to enforce our immigration laws. The result? Waves of illegals attempting to cross the border every day, cartels making bolder moves into U.S. territories, and more American citizens along the border being faced with violence and illegal activities in their own backyards. I hope you'll stand with me in saying "no more!" If the federal government isn't interested in doing their job, we'll continue to fight back on our own. Will you help us in this battle by donating $25, $50, $75, or any amount you can afford to send a strong message to the Washington bureaucrats that if they won't protect our borders and enforce our laws, we will? We're working tirelessly to fight back against the cartels and the illegal immigrants who've chosen to knowingly break the law. Local law enforcement agents and common citizens are united in this effort and we're holding the line despite the total lack of effort from the Washington bureaucrats to send reinforcements. We need to share this important message far and wide to let folks know about what's happening in Washington and how we're fighting back in our local communities. Chip in $25, $50, $75, or any amount you can afford to help us spread the word TODAY! I appreciate your continued support and look forward to standing with you and making clear to Washington that we won't tolerate their inaction any longer.

Oakwood Alumni banquet Today

The banquet is today----eat at noon!!!

X37B----This ADM Ignoring its capability to Access ISS with operational vehicle!!!!

Along with all the other dumb things this adm is doing, paying the Russians 72 m per ride is just one more on a long list.  The Boeing x37b proposal to use it for getting to ISS should be implemented.   A summary of the logic is provided by Frank Buzzard.

The x37-b is a fine spacecraft.  However it is MUCH smaller than space Shuttle.  It was deliberately designed to not have the extra weight, life support, and astronaut flying capabilites.  So to add humans would take 5-7 years and significantly modify the design and add a lot of weight meaning much less cargo.  Having said that, It could with enough NASA money be modified to carry about 3, maybe four humans into Low Earth Orbit (LEO).  Right now NASA is spending $500 Million per year to entice 3 companies to provide commercial crew service to ISS.  So contrast that with the NASA budget of $2.8 Billion in 2014 to build the new rocket (Space Launch System SLS and Orion crew capsule) and capsule to go to an asteroid.  That is nearly SIX times more to build a new NASA rocket and capsule that does not go to ISS!!  Does that balance make sense.  Is LEO commercial transportation to ISS an important objective of NASA compared to what they are spending to a maybe futurestunt to return an asteroid rock by humans?

Truth never got out to public re shuttle !!

Anti Shuttle Propaganda

Part of the shuttle termination initiative has been a deceptive ongoing anti shuttle propaganda campaign by a cadre of " Space Experts"and the then NASA Administrator. The PBS Columbia Documentary is the most extensive example. In it the shuttles are labeled as "worn out, old technology, too risky, too costly, a mistake and not capable of supporting solar system exploration" none of which is true.The initiative has been very effective and after six years the anti shuttle rhetoric has become a media myth.

Myth versus Reality

Even with the approaching termination of the Public's 200 billion dollar shuttle system the nation still has a choice. Considering the facts above it is clear the reality is the shuttle based system for space exploration is the correct choice both technically and financially. .

The press could make the difference. SAT has approached numerous media publications with our message and they have chosen to continue to support the myth. These include PBS, the NY Times ,Flight International, the Orange County Register, NASA News and the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. It is my hope that you will read the pro shuttle information noted and will arrange for me to meet with you and your editor for a one hour question and answer session. It is your choice as to time place and agenda. It is vital to the nation that someone of your stature in the press investigates and acts on this information. I have an impressive list of engineer sources (Bob Thompson and three former Chief Engineers for a start) ready to answer any question you might have, people you would be honored, as I am, to associate with and people who are true space experts. By Interviewing these guys you would become the most space shuttle knowledgeable reporter on the planet.

Without media support to get our message out the shuttle legacy will probably be similar to that of the Titanic and the Hindenberg, manned space travel will regress fifty years, the Public's money invested in the Space Shuttle System will have been wasted, and America's leadership in space will be forfeited.

Respectfully,

Allen J. Richardson, SAT Spokesman
