I don’t think SLS ever looked good, except when evaluating it for pork value.

- woodandsteel 8y agoHere is what I would like to ask the head of NASA if I had the chance to interview him. First I would ask him to list the various specific missions that the SLS is designed to carry out. And then I would ask if the BRF lives up to its promises, which of those missions, if any it would not be able to carry out.
- mikeash 8y agoIf he were able to be completely honest, I imagine his answers would be “satisfy members of Congress by sending money to their districts.” SLS exists by Congressional mandate, and I don’t think NASA actually wants it.
