As I understand it there are four sensors. They should just fly the

You think so? Would you like to be on it, or a family member of yours be
on it, with a faulty safety system? Do you even understand what these
four sensors actually *DO* ?

The space shuttle is entirely safe if we
keep finding reasons never to fly. We will get more missions out of
the space shuttles before retirement if we take additional risks and
fly more missions than if we are so careful not to let one blow up that
we fly very very few missions.

Are you speaking from the perspective of a highly educated aerospace
engineer, or simply blathering like an idiot with a 3rd grade education?
How could you possibly know how safe the shuttle is? You know nothing.

More spineless American syndrome if you ask me.

Nobody asked you, and your opinion is clearly worthless, you ignorant
doofus.

America is trying very hard to throw away the edge we have in
space technology (a very important field long term).

You think so, huh? Who is challenging America in the "space race"?
Russia? France? LOL! Who?
