Who could have done this? Terrorists? Disgruntled Employees?
Deliberate?

Can any of the more learned and experienced members possibly explain just how a person can have the sufficient security clearence, to be able to tamper with shuttle management systems cause such a negative impact on the worlds most advanced space transportation in the world?

Also I hear Nasa physicians found evidence that astronauts were flying under the influence of alcohol (FUI?) - rule has been broken according to aviations week USA.

What is going on The Agency? First attempted crime of passion by a female astronaut. Then sabotage. Then FUI? is there any end to the happenings in NASA?

Should I now expect a total lack of responsibility and 'free reign' attitude from some of the most important bastions of 'amercan culture and society'?

This is nothing more than incredibly crass behaviour and lapse security ,in the worlds 'most advanced' (obviously not completely developed!), and respected space agency.

As a result, this really begs the question as to who the REAL patriotic american, your everyday Joe, (YOU) is allowing, to govern over them, and, more urgently, whether it is for YOU or YOUR children's interest, to allow this abuse to continue...
