On Good Morning America today they had an interview between Joan London and NASA Director Biggs. Maybe the Director was just nervous but it really worrys me when Joan London does a better job of discussing space issues then the Director of NASA. The interview pointed out that in the last three years the Russians have had men on board space stations for one and a half of those years, and they certainly must be learning something from all that flight time. When pressed as to what were the Americans doing and should we be concerned about the Russian activities the Director simple stated that NASA has been studying space platforms since the 1960's and that we should be carefully watching the Russians. I think that it is a good sign that the press is starting to report on the Russian activity. It is a message the the general public needs to hear more often and it hints that indeed the US may be in the space station business if the press and the general public begin to support the idea.
