Quote of the Day:
“NASA owes it to the citizens from whom it asks support to be frank, honest and informative, so these citizens can make the wisest decisions for the use of their limited resources. For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled.”
Richard Feynman, Rogers Report on Space Shuttle Challenger Accident, June 9, 1986
