Read the entire bit: I did not write the above, but I agree with every single word. WAR OF THE BUMPER STICKERS

Reading this thread I just have to wonder what some folks are smoking. :crazy: http://www.ejectejecteject.com/archives/000136.html

Well it wasn't, but even if it were one nation doesn't harass ships of other nations making passage through their waters unless they're prepared to live with the consequences of doing so. The ship still has a right to protect itself even in the waters of another nation. The narrowest part of...

Given what happened to USS Cole any unauthorized approach by unknown boats that will not reply when challenged is "threatening". And when said boats don't even respond warning whistles and flares are fired it is obvious that their intentions are suspect. As for being international waters, that...

USS Enterprise is in port at Newport News, beginning a 16 month refit. But anyway, just about every ship in the US Navy, of any appreciable size, is armed with at least one Mk-15 Phalanx CIWS. This 3-4 thousand round per minute 20mm weapon would cut any Iranian fast boat in two.

The US had a satellite program before Sputnik was launched and a manned spaceflight program before Gagarin flew. The Russian program didn't force the US to have a program, but it did force it to develop much faster than it would have otherwise. I don't see any US president / congress ending US...

A few points: The US DOE budget represents only a fraction of the money spent on education in the US. Education money also comes from state budgets. The federal government also appropriates money to education projects outside the normal DOE budget. Just because one program is more important...

It has been so long, I don't really remember. Maybe I was searching for MS space simulator or Buzz Aldrin's Race Into Space related "stuff" or maybe I found a link to Orbiter at "Underdogs" site.

If LRO resolution is high enough there may be a chance to study some effects of long term exposure to the lunar environment by imaging the Apollo sites, so it isn't just an exercise solely aimed at discrediting the moon hoax nuts.

This bothers me to no end. I wish all add on developers would segregate all of their add on files, not just readme's, into their very own directories.

Just for the fun of it let's just say that Kaguya takes excellent, highly detailed overhead pictures of all the Apollo landing sites tomorrow. They're published all over the world. Why would the Moon hoaxer morons believe these pictures when the don't believe the "excellent, highly detailed"...

RE: James Oberg. Before anyone goes to far in questioning James Obergs expertise in space related matters, particularly related to the Russian space program, I'd like to see your resume and compare it to Mr Oberg's: http://www.jamesoberg.com/profile.html...

The Right Stuff with Apollo 13 a very close second place. Isn't it sad that of all the momentous events of history that been the subject of movies there hasn't been even one "big time" movie solely dedicated to Apollo 11 and mans first landing on another celestial object? I guess the upcoming...
