Reader Comment: “I am a NASA KSC employee and there is a new commercial for OnStar that just started airing that features the Space Shuttle. The shuttle featured in the commercial isColumbia and I do not have to tell you how much in poor taste this is. I realize that not everyone will recognize that it is Columbia, but for those of us who do (especially the families of the astronauts) it is offensive. I have e-mailed Onstar and I just wanted to pass this on to you in case you wanted to share it.”
