A much more likely source of failure is the lack of EEs at NASA, as
outlined
in the Shuttle crash investigation board report. Until the areo mafia

rooted out of NASA, there can be no forward movement. Aero's havn't
controlled a successful aerospace company since the 1970s, as it has
been
all EE since then.
