  1. The first orbital mission of the Shuttle was in 1981. Reagan's first term started in January 1981. Reagan was not around to change things "mid build". Who told you that lie?

  3.  @TheEvilmooseofdoom  Yes, but I bet you would be willing to do it for less!

  4. I assume you are talking about the Space Shuttle. The SRBs didn't have to go as high or as fast so, recovery was easier. The main tank goes nearly all the way into orbit, so it would need the same level of reentry protection as the orbiter to recover by reentry, and it's not that elaborate or expensive compared to the other components, just a tank with some insulation. The mass budget would have been prohibitive, and it would not have been cost effective. There was some talk of using the tank IN ORBIT. Basically, Skylab was an oversized Agena upper stage with the fuel tank reused as living area. A single main tank fitted out in a similar manner to be a component of the ISS would more than double the living space of the station.

  5.  @christofl6523  Further proof that these frequencies pass through the atmosphere is that have been and still can be beamed toward the Moon and a signal bounced off it, with the proper 2 to 3 second light speed delay. Under some conditions, satellites are visible in the night sky.

  6.  @christofl6523  "there was no delay when the astronauts on the moon were talking to NASA back on Earth." Of course, there was. "The only people who still believe in the moon landing" are everybody except a few kook fringe conspiracy theorists. You sound like you think that yours is the majority view. Every piece of "evidence" you present in a public forum is debunked immediately, but you still pretend to have a point. You just made a counterfactual assertion about the com delay, for instance. Any conspiracy theory which requires that ALL THE EYEWITNESSES ARE LYING is BUNK! It flies in the face of human nature, and turns the ordinary rules of evidence on their head. In real life 3 can keep a secret when 2 are dead.
