How about a source that doesn't require me to download it?

I want to hear progress on the Constellation Project. I've loved the space shuttles, but the Constellation Project is to coincide with a permanent moon base, so it has my concerns right now.

Go watch Apollo 13 and that will give you a pretty good idea.

COLBERT module?
Is it a coincidence that it shares its name with Stephen Colbert?
Do I even want to know?

Fuck yeah for American know how...

Makes me kinda sad they are retiring the shuttle, it still has plenty of service life.

It's a treadmill named after Stephen Colbert.
