Sun, Dec 9, 2007 Shuttle Launch Off Until January Dec 9, AP Aerospace Writer CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) - NASA on Sunday delayed the launch of space shuttle Atlantis until January after a gauge in the fuel tank failed for the second time in four days. With only a few days remaining in the launch window for the shuttle's mission to the international space station, senior managers decided to stand down until next month in hopes of better understanding the perplexing and persistent fuel gauge problem.

Rubatex Pipe Insulation April 24, 2005 (AXcess News) Houston TX - Management and engineering have had a history of being at odds over safety issues on NASA's space flights, even before the Columbia disaster.

Rubatex 180 The disagreements between engineers and managers peaked during the days leading up to the piece of foam insulation that came off the shuttle flight, knocking a hole in the shuttle's wing that led to the firey crash.Since the Columbia shuttle disaster NASA safety issues have been examined and depending on who you ask, NASA is doing a better job of protecting its astronauts and space vehicles.

Rubatex 180 Fs Some NASA scientists feel that the space agency is under to much pressure to return to flight and fear that management will once again overlook engineering concerns when the space shuttle Discovery returns to flight.Management believes that NASA is making progress once more and that the shuttle's safety is not being overlooked.

Rubatex 1800 James Wetherbee, who quit NASA in January, was a shuttle commander who was fed up with management. Wetherbee said that nothing has changed at NASA, that decisions were still being managed the same way they were before the Columbia shuttle disaster, which prompted him to resign, Wetherbee says.

Rubatex 320 Its been two years since the last NASA space shuttle flight and as the launch date nears for Discovery, the debate over safety continues.

Rubatex 373 Even Discovery's crew has mixed feelings over NASA's safety plans and each a different opinion about NASA's preparedness.

Rubatex Rubber But changing the culture of how NASA operates is no overnight event and NASA realizes that, especially since investigations revealed gaps in its safety culture.Investigators had found that NASA safety culture had not changed from the time of the Challenger launch explosion 17 years ago to the time of the Columbia shuttle disaster just two years ago.

Rubatex Tape According to the report by the Columbia Accident Investigation Board in August 2003 engineers warnings were for the most part overlooked by NASA management and that fostered an atmosphere of repression, which continues today. In meeting the needs of the international space station, flight schedules have also played a major role in NASA management decisions and that has caused intense pressure on NASA scientists to complete their work on schedule.

Rubatex Closing Overall, the space race is heating up with viable commercial possibilities looming at the fingertips of who ever gets there first, from mining asteroids to colonizing Mars. That kind thinking is what's worried scientists most and as NASA tries to improve its safety culture the schools of risk adverse and chance will continue to bump heads.
