NASA JSC Reader note: “It’s great that NASA has space nuts like Rep. DeLay and Rep. Poe supporting us, but it would be nice if they got their facts straight before advocating for us.NASA didn’t invent Tang. We didn’t invent Teflon or Velcro either.”
Editor’s note: Of course it would never occur to Legislative Affairs or PAO to correct these glaring misconceptions that members of Congress seem to suffer from.
