shuttle, space station were mistakes

NASA head Michael Griffin said the space shuttle and the International Space Station were mistakes, and he believes the agency must change its path. Griffin made the remarks in a meeting with USA TODAY's editorial board. Griffin last week announced plans to send astronauts back to the moon in 2018 in a spacecraft resembling the Apollo capsule. He has said the space shuttle was flawed and that the space station was not worth risking human life. USA TODAY (9/27)
