If it wasn't for the billions of dollars invested in each explosion (it would be far cheaper just to use gasoline and a match) I'd be all for NASA. As long as the explosions weren't associated with manned missions, of course.
I mean, when it comes to blowing sh*t up, nobody is even in NASA'S league. By my count, so far, they have blown up sh*t on at least 4 planets and a moon. And that's not counting any secret missions or the military ones. Nobody's better. Not the Ruskies, not Red Adair, not anybody.
Still, I hope they've figured out a way to launch rescue missions in a reasonable amount of time. Mr. Donger, you said earlier that the launch window on this mission was 5 minutes or something? Was that weather related? Do you know whether or not there are any restrictions (other than the obvious availability of equipment and personnel) on launching rescue missions?
