NASA is going places

Rand Simberg responds to a recent post by former astronaut Tom Jones at Popular Mechanics concerning the new plan for NASA:
/-- The New NASA: A Path To Anywhere, And Everywhere: Why Ares and Orion Are Unnecessary - Popular Mechanics
/-- The End Of The Apollo Cargo Cult? - Transterrestrial Musings

(As noted in Rand's blog item, there are a couple of typos in the Pop. Mechanics piece.)

"The End Of The Apollo Cargo Cult?"

that is a great headline

the pursuit of unaffordable lift capability smothers space development

with obama and bolden it is finally time to invest in missions rather than rockets

Typos or not, it's another lucid and eloquent Simberg treatise on the advantages of the new plan.
