In reply to Kryten42. Actually, it needs to be replaced because we have better, more accurate technology available. I assume the bearings on the antenna seized up, which is understandable considering that the design was for a three year life cycle. It's the standard Republican reasoning for not doing routine maintenance, i.e. it is a waste of money of to replace things that are still working, like bridges over the Mississippi River. Wait until they break.

I’m sure the fault could be repaired. But honestly, I wouldn’t trust NASA, or any US agency with the mission.

!0 years was an amazing run before a serious fault (and it still works, just that a motor seized or control system failed in some way in all probability). Today, I wouldn’t give it 6 mths.

After all that’s happened recently, I’m beginning to suspect that the current Dem’s will be worse. We’ll see.

In reply to cookie jill. We have yet to see if the Democrats are going to be any better, but there is a chance they might be.

They just don’t care. These uber “Christians” are death cultists. And, as their fearful leader W once answered when posed the question how will history look at his presidency…”it doesn’t matter…we’ll all be dead.”

Why discover things? We’ll all be dead.
Why try stopping global warming? We’ll all be dead.
Why try fixing things to help our country into the future? We’ll all be dead.

They should actually try appreciating life for once…not just pay it lip service for political gain.
