Space Shuttle Launch Delay
NASA announced today the launch of the space shuttle will be delayed due to the nation being nine trillion dollars in debt. There was no money , in the launch budget , to light up the main tank fuel gauge in the dark. Electrical technicians were going to attempt to rig some spare fibre optic parts from the pilots emergency flashlight to the gauge. However , to do this , NASA would need an additional five billion dollars in emergency funding to buy batteries.
