Just got in... NASA has, regrettably, become an ossified bureaucracy that is simply incapable now of putting a moon landing together. I believe it hit its apex of incompetence during the Sean O'Keeffe era manifested by his ill concieved decision to defer the needed Hubble fix. He subsequently changed his mind when pressured politically. It's all cyclical. Lean, mean, hungry and innovative during the 60's. Fat, overindulged and lazy during the 90s. The old age of the shuttle fleet is testament. There's not the dollars, leadership and inspired institutional thinking to make NASA the kthe kind of exciting organization it was in the 60s and 70s. That kind of recipe will come from the private sector. Look at GM...
