NASA Clears Shuttle Fuel Tank for Flight

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the back-in-action dept.

Screamer49 writes "CNN is reporting that NASA approved a major design change in the space shuttle's fuel tank on Wednesday, clearing the last major hurdle before shuttle flights can resume as early as July 1." It's nice to have a more functional space program again, isn't it?

    Slashdot sure is funny. I never expected to be modded troll for this. It's as if the moderators actually believe NASA, as if I had dissed a bunch of girl scouts or spelling bee contestants. Sure surprised me. Flamebait maybe, or even funny, but troll? Sheesh. I guess it just shows to go ya that slashdot is more fun than digg.
