If SSC had not been in operation in 2006, considering both direct and indirect effects, a very conservative estimate of reduction in employment for the local area would be more than 19,500 jobs. A similar conservative estimate indicates that personal income would have been reduced by more than $811.4 million, and retail sales would have been reduced by $324.6 million. It is estimated that SSC has an impact on local government tax revenu Sat, 12 Jan 2008 02:22:14 GMT http://www.scribd.com/doc/995775/NASA-171651main-fs20070200041ssc http://www.scribd.com/doc/995774/NASA-188227main-fs20070800046ssc Stennis Space Center John C.

Seven months after the accident, the Columbia Accident Investigation Board (CAIB) released the first volume of its final report, citing a variety of technical, managerial, and cultural issues within NASA and the Space Shuttle Program. To their credit, NASA offered few excuses, embraced the report, and set about correcting the deficiencies noted by the accident board.
