re: 5 years hiatus

Ummm, I think you misheard. OSP was to be available in 2008 before today. The rescope to CEV maintains that readiness date, although we'll have to scramble to make it. We're going to have a team meeting next Tuesday after OSP management talks to O'Keefe on Friday. Hopefully, we'll have a clear picture then of what the new game plan will be. I seriously doubt we'll see any hiatus in US human spaceflight.
