NASA announced today that all future shuttle flights will be grounded because another piece of foam insulation fell off during the latest launch.
For all the billions of $$$ and all the great minds employed at NASA, you'd thind they could figure out how to hold STYROFOAM in place!!
How about LIQUID NAILS???
$1.49 at Home Depot!!

    Yep, they can make carbon insulators that will handle temperatures that would vaporize steel but they can't get styrofoam to stick to a friggin' gas tank[;)] Maybe they ought to put the tank building up for bid, bet the company in Louisiana that makes 'em would find some decent glue in a hurry[;)]

    Actually, I just had a bright idea, since super glue bonds skin and anything together pretty much stronger than anything else we should super glue an insulating layer of illegals to the exterior of the shuttle's main fuel tank[:p][:o)][:0]
