Dear NASA,
What exactly is going on? If you don't mind me being so bold as to say so, it seems like you guys are just screwing around over there. I mean everyone else seems to be able to get a satellite in the sky lately, and I mean everybody, even the Iranians and the North Koreans.
If we're not running one of our Satellites into an aging Russian Satellite, we're just going to crash them into the ocean without ever achieving orbit.
Extra Credit Question: How much carbon dioxide is produced by a rocket launched carrying an Orbital Carbon Observatory, which immediately crashes into the ocean?
Oh, and are we ever going to get that decrepit shuttle off the ground? Come on now, four delays in a row. Maybe is it time to give up on the shuttle program? I know you guys are really attached to those shuttles, after all they have been around since the '70's, but when exactly is enough enough. Do you think those guys on the ISS would enjoy some company? Or at least some fresh water perhaps?
Best Regards,
Todd

First, I just want to say, I am impressed that you are on a first name basis with the folks at NASA. Way to go.
Second, get off their backs already, you think it's easy being a rocket scientist? Sheesh! What's the big deal if they miss every now and again?
Finally, was that extra credit question intended for your readers, or your friends at NASA? Just curious.
I thought only my friends at NASA read my blog.
If you know the answer feel free to chime in (god knows we usually can't keep you quiet).
I'll take the first answer closest to the actual tonage of carbon emitted by a piece of... I mean faulty launch.
You know, I might try to guess if I even had the first clue what "tonage of carbon emitted" meant.
