SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) - A nearly completed, $239 million weather satellite
toppled to the floor as it was being moved at a Lockheed Martin plant and was
seriously damaged, officials said Tuesday.
The NOAA-N Prime was being moved from a vertical to a horizontal position when
it fell 3 feet Saturday at the Sunnyvale facility.
I think there's a conspiracy to prevent NOAA from launching satellites. Their
last one was delayed for the better part of a year IIRC because at the last
minute someone decided they needed a new spy satellite launched instead.
