    "New Scientist is reporting that concerns over deteriorating equipment on ISS."

    Huh? If you don't speak english, just go ahead and submit in mandarin, or whatever your native tongue is. We don't read the articles anyways.

    Thanks in advance.

    Plus we have to acknowledge the fact that all of these people are working for money. They don't wake up and come into work each morning because they want to keep our astronauts safe. They do it only for the money.

    that statement was mindnumbinly stupid. who, exactly, again, works for NASA for the money?

    God damn.. the more I read your comment the more I'm convinced you're an idiot.

    "And since we pay them more I think the responsibility and consequences clearly fall into their hands."

    There's so many things wrong with that I don't know where to start.
