Perhaps it was one of these audits?
- netsharc 4y agoSeems like at least 2 people on this reply thread didn't read the article. It could be 3, since OP wrote "an audit", if OP did the audit mentioned in the article they would've written "the audit".
- motoboi 4y agoYou are assuming people only comment if they read the article.
- jffry 4y agoThe audit discussed in the article was "several years" after 2011. The document I linked discusses, on page 17, a 2012 GAO report on 21 large NASA projects and discusses how its cost overruns are affecting other programs, which could be motivation to can the project or otherwise give the impression it will "never get off the ground" I brought it up because it more closely fit GP's "2012" timeline and shows that even before the audit in the article, there was good reason to doubt the future of the mission.
