NASA Caught Napping

No, They're Not Over The Moon About It

Photographs of workers at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Centre sleeping on the job have been posted on the internet, reports The Associated Press. The images show three employees at the Hunstville space center sleeping at consoles, while a fourth is playing an online card game. The employees worked for NASA contractor Teledyne Brown Engineering Incorporated in the space centre's Payload Operations Center which manages the science operations of the international space station. A NASA spokesman said the pictures aren't indicative of the performance of the overall team and calls them isolated incidents. Managers are reviewing rulebooks. Obviously, the workers will not receive a lunar tick.
