DO NOT use the " Shuttle - C " sidemount configuration !!! DIRECT 3.0 is the way to go !! The sidemount variation will cause NASA another major disaster !!!

But what 'DESERT place' does the United States have with population centers any farther from it (in any direction) than they are from the Kennedy Space Center?

There's a reason, after all, that KSC is located by the ocean...

NASA should launch the Earth climate studying satelites that are already waiting & currently in mothballs.

If we can make sure that all the communications systems work, that is one step to get us to a great goal of being on more than one planet.
