On the Challenger anniversary, one of the network news programs reported that 15 astronauts had resigned since the explosion. This was bound to happen, but obviously NASA has been quiet about it. The only resignations I've seen mentioned are those of Sally Ride (got divorced and went to the Hoover Institute at Stanford) and John Fabian (now in a senior position at ANSER, an Air Force think tank). Does anyone know who the other 13 resignees are, and where they've gone? (To Henry Spencer: who carries that kind of news regularly?) Reply to me; I'll summarize to the net. -- David Lubkin UUCP: {mit-erl,yale,uw-beaver,decvax}!apollo!lubkin ARPA: apollo!lubkin@eddie.mit.edu

Sorry about posting this but e-mail rejected it. > -- David Lubkin I seem to remeber a Denver TV station mentioning that Kathy Sullivan had left NASA and was in a surgical rehabilitation program at Denver General Hospital. She is learning how to become a doctor again. I believe that she was a General Surgeon before she joined NASA as a Mission Specialist. -- "Hey laser lips, your momma was a snow blower!" -- Number 5 Dave Rowland at NCAR Boulder, Colorado djr@scdpyr.UUCP

Rhea Seddon (sp?) is an MD, so maybe they meant her. -- *** mike (Mr. Bug) smithwick *** "the only thing wrong with reality, it that it takes too much time" [discalimer : nope, I don't work for NASA, I take full blame for my ideas]
