Opinion: Why NASA is nothing but a leaking pot difficult to mend

Lately, NASA has become like a leaking pot. It is a vessel held together by weak ‘kirakas’. And when a broken section is patched up, another crack develops immediately after. It is almost as though the coalition has upset the gods of politics, and is facing their wrath at every turn.

The NASA chronicle is playing out like the story of the 50 daughters of Danaus in Greek mythology. Danaus had 50 daughters betrothed to 50 sons of the King of Egypt.
