NASA Chief Admits Space Shuttle, Space Station were Mistakes

Yes, they most certainly were. A combined $250 Billion. What did we get from them, besides the Challenger and Columbia Disasters?

UPDATE:

From a commentor of a similar post at Althouse:

I think NASA is a bigger joke than space exploration. We'd be better off granting private organizations money to do the research where there is incentive to be effecient and effective with the grant money from the government. If the government is the customer, then Nasa has a monopoly on space exploration which has always lead to high prices for low results.

DING! DING! DING!
