NASA SPACE AUTOPILOT TEST SUFFERS CRIPPLING FLAW
------------------------------------------------
NASA's $110 million high-risk, high-tech demonstration of a space
autopilot for future human spaceships and robotic cargo craft closed
within 300 feet of its target Friday night, then inexplicably ran out of
fuel to the dismay of helpless engineers on the ground.
