OCO Fails To Reach Orbit

[XODLC]

i dont like how nasa takes credit for whatever ends up working for them, but if something like a rocket blows up, they blame it on the company. "Oh look at this crap rocket orbital built!" my dad did a great job as the program manager.. and he had to take all the blame for other people not taking their time to make sure the rocket was put together correctly, they were too rushed. and then nasa made a huge deal about how much money was lost, even though it was no one's fault.

shit i didn't even know about this failure. that sucks!

Global warming is the biggest hoax ever

[seyoumeye]

Thanks for posting this.

CO2 researches have been hampered from the beginning by global warming theorist (who own also the mass media) blind to the present plunging ice-age global freezing (?)

We should really investigate further this ACCIDENT(?)

What a shame. Thanks for posting Bruno.

I hope NASA remembered to register the skin color of everyone involved in the mission for future use in their retarded black history month videos. I really lost all respect for NASA/NAACP after their recent set of disgusting videos. (no offense to you BrunoTQ).

[JaalaJ]

Not wrong.

[hyhhy]

It really is too bad that the success rate of space launches is less than 100%. But it has to be lived with and accepted if space is to be utilized and explored. Hopefully this investigation will result in a higher success rate for future missions.

I'm always cheering for nations like the US that advance humanity's cause in space technology and exploration.

[Fighting89Back]

What about our oceans? Just 1% of NASA's budget would do so much for sea exploration.

[hyhhy]

Hey, I'm all for sea exploration too, especially if it really is that cheap compared to space exploration. It won't take humanity to completely new worlds and probably won't produce technologies comparable to for example satellite communications, but I'm not against it in any way. It might even be synergistic with space exploration, since underwater is a hostile environment to a human somewhat like space.

[Fighting89Back]

We're killing off our seas. It's a place full of life with gaint squids and Gods knows what else; it's also a place we're ignorant of. If we don't explore it now, we may never get to, because it being killed off.

However, I don't think sea exploration will get much funding because it doesn't help war technology like space.

[Shadowsnshades]

Too bad

[semiliteratedgod]

it's OK guys, it's only taxpayer's money ...

[imstephanw]

Without that money, we wouldn't be able to enjoy the technologies we have today...

[semiliteratedgod]

and with it? shit doesn't fly anyway ...

I'd like to see some responsibility in NASA! torture; hands, genitalia cut off, pulling out nails, this sort of things

cause FAIL IS FREE!!

[imstephanw]

You know how many satellites orbit around our planet, some which you probably use everyday? How the hell do you think they got there. I agree with the money situation, especially at times like this, where we need to just back off on the spending. I just hate how NASA's recognition is only put out on the news whenever somethings goes wrong. Just search videos about the Challenger or Columbia. You get more videos of the crash then you do of any of the previous missions they were used for combined.

"You know how many satellites orbit around our planet, some which you probably use everyday? How the hell do you think they got there"

Yeah, but you know, it seems to me that they might have done a better job.

Just like in the case of Detroit... (GM sux, people want Toyotas) we know that Russian rockets has been flying without fails for more than 30 or 40 years (on a ridiculous budget BTW!)

It's time to admit that they are not that good or efficient at this and should improve the process ...

[JaalaJ]

I agree with what you're saying, imstephanw. I remember after Columbia the next launch was all over the tv, on every station. Then the media looked to be quite upset that it went well. It was an anti-climax for them, so sickening I'll never forget the disappointment on their faces. They didn't bother to cover the landing, not here anyway.

[TECHKLEC]

The additional weight of the fairing caused the vehicle to stray off course. Thanks for posting these timely updates, Bruno.

[ubuibiok]

again, great brains not planning for all contingencies...no recovery system in case of failed insertion. 30+ million wasted.

[qpwnsall]

damn...
