Edstock Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Bureaucracy, Labor Woes Doom Super-Weapons Lab Aerospace giant Boeing is in the process of shutting down one of America's most storied laboratories. "Building 31," part of Boeing's research facility in Huntington Beach, Calif., helped develop some of the Pentagon's most secretive weapons — that is, until bloated bureaucracy and benefit cuts demoralized and scattered its employees. Under current plans, the 60-year-old lab will close its doors for good in mid-2013. Somehow, Boeing lost its way; maybe they really needed Al to stay on?. Sad. Below, the X-37 spaceplane, which has the Russkies and the Chinese very worried, because they don't have anything that comes even close to its orbit-changing capability.
