LDSD does NOT = UFO


This June 2014 flight test of NASA's Low-Density Supersonic Decelerator (LDSD) was delayed because of unfavorable weather conditions at the U.S. Navy's Pacific Missile Range in Kauai, Hawaii. The complete story HERE. I am personally in favor of extra planetary exploration as it satisfies a human need to explore both in person and by remote contraption. Unwrapping the unknown is exciting as well as rewarding. The international space programs continue to deliver benefit to the general population and our collective future.
