With the exception of a 2 orbit unmanned test flight, no Russian shuttle has done anything. Only 1 was ever finished & can be purchased. Can't remember how much, but it's going cheap.

I had an English car once, Jaguar to be specific. You guys can't even make a reliable car.

Yeah and the USA special forces were turned down by an american general because he knew the UK special forces were so much better. That must be tough to take for a silly little boy like you.........

I'd rather separate a virus in a Volvo than a Yugo. If the work is so damn important, why not do everything we can to protect and ensure its completion?

The space program is right up there with the military budget in the eyes of many Americans... IMO, more money should be used to fund NASA... space exploration IS the final frontier...

Gimme a break. They use the same weapons, train in similar manners and have the same mindset. War is about logistics, not about being Rambo. A branch of US special forces (I believe it was the newly created Navy SEALs, formed from the underwater demolition teams from WWII) had something like a 200-1 kill ratio in the jungles and brown rivers of Vietnam. But I'm sure that the SAS would have done a whole lot better right?
