Ambit's NASA Cams Closed

Why?

For the first time in nearly ten years, someone at NASA has questioned the legality of this Web page , the support others voluntarily wanted to give to it, and threatened review by NASA's "General Counsel." This, despite the fact that numerous NASA employees over the years, including one responsible for the NASA Web site, expressed no concerns whatsoever. Ever.

Frankly, my interest in NASA extends back to when I was a child and regularly received "NASA Facts" in the 1950's. Then NASA was an agency that sparked dreams.

So, if you are still interested in NASA, do a search and find what is offered elsewhere. Until recently I would have been saddened by having to say that, but I'm not. NASA is an agency in decline, a decline that has undermined its public support and my lifelong interest with it. Now it is an agency so petty and lost that it has time to turn its attention here, one of billions of pages on the Internet. It's no wonder that its future funding is under severe scrutiny.
