Maybe they wouldn't have had any options, but hell
management didn't even try.
I'm not happy that every time they talk they seem to be
trying to get in front of things in such a way to
just cover their ass.
I will add , it's coming out faster and better
than I thought it would. But I bet it's more
because of the pressure being put on them, than any
yearning to be honest.

Yes, unfortunately, management often turns out to be the weakest link in many instances. And of course since these people are placed on a pedestal or place themselves on a pedestal, covering their own backsides becomes the overwhelming priority much of the time..... NASA is better these days at coming clean relatively quickly, but there is still plenty of room for improvement in their attitudes and methods.... I do not believe we should be sentencing astronauts to death when something goes wrong without even attempting or being prepared for a rescue mission. This is criminal and shameful and must be changed.
