I agree. Instead of losing 25 grand, you can try to cut down some costs and try using some stuff here from Earth. Yeah, Carl. I agree.

A pair of space age grease guns, space wipes and a space putty knife totaling approximately 25,000.00. Now if they had regular grease guns to do the same job and just rags for wipes and a regular putty knife, this wouldn't cost more than 25.00. Any mistakes made in space is gonna be very expensive and congress is watching and taking notes. I think NASA ought to try to cut-out of their expensive space prgram some items where cuts can be administered. I know they train in a swimming pool under water with all of their equipment, but are all of the space tools need to be so expensive? Can't they use anything here on earth that can be used in space?
