What's the general reaction to Reagan's pocket veto of the
funds needed to build a new Space Shuttle, and his reasons ?
My understanding is that he vetoed the funds because the
bill did not give him enough personal control of NASA. But
wasn't it the presure to get Challenger up before his
press conference the same evening that led to Challenger
being unsafely launched in the first place ? Does he want\
more personal control so he can use NASA as a public circus
for his own political purposes ?
