NASA Discovers Space Spies From the 60's

Saeed al-Sahaf writes "In a room forgotten for more than thirty years at NASA's Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida, NASA recently found suits for space spies. Originally thought to be Gemini suits, the manufacturer determined that they were suits from a short-lived Cold War-era military program to put a manned reconnaissance station in space. Begun in 1964, the Manned Orbiting Laboratory program was an Air Force initiative that would have sent Air Force astronauts to a space station in a Gemini capsule. After spending a few weeks in orbit, the crew would undock and return to Earth. An interesting blast from the past."

How do you forget a room for 30 years?

No wonder NASA has budget problems. I wonder if there are any bags of money lying around Cape Canaveral that they've forgotton about. "Hey guys, look at this. Some really expensive real estate that we never use. Is that Jimmy Hoffas body in there?"
