jayThere's an email dated 5 September being circulated from the NASA Deputy Administrator, Fred Gregory...
...even after telling the crowd last Wednesday that it is OK to combine NEXT and Eileen's science and the medical stuff as the beginning of several road maps with milestones that acknowledge the possibility of leaving Low Earth Orbit, there are still some who are afraid to take the next step without getting further permission. Those folks will be left at the station. Research driven exploration is where I am heading. If an email of this type will help, share this one with your folks and let's get rolling.
I *like* this attitude, coming from Headquarters... this gives us the ability to be entrepreneurial and creative about ways to get to the Moon and Mars without having higher management stifle us (as being politically risky). If it isn't a hoax...
