Aero-News Quote Of The Day (04.30.04)

Aero-News: Quote of the Day

ANN's Quote of the Day usually derives from current news, though we reserve the right to pick quotes out of history that have a bearing on the day's events and issues.

Sometimes, you'll find them timely and in keeping with the content of the day's news... and sometimes, they'll just be thought-provoking.

Reader suggestions and comments are welcome... and if particularly intriguing, timely, or poignant, may themselves become future Quotes of the Day.

Let us hear from you, folks!

Aero-News Quote of the Day

"Maybe they ought to stick to unmanned space exploration because they sure as hell aren't very good at flying safely."

Source: Chuck Yeager (Brig. Gen., USAF, Ret.), speaking recently to the 41st Space Congress about NASA's shining success with the Mars rovers and its tragic failures leading to the Challenger and Columbia disasters. Yeager, who served on the board investigating the Challenger disaster 18 years ago, says he was "sickened" by the lessons NASA didn't learn in the years before the Columbia disintegration.
