For those of you who have dipped into this oscillation issue but perhaps haven’t seen all the various reports about the Ares I crew launch vehicle and its oscillation conundrum you might want to peruse through the following

You can get a good idea of what the problem is from this Aviation Week and Space Technology article

And this AvWeek article talks about a Shuttle launch NASA wants to help them address the issue

Then there is NASA’s answers to all the questions about the oscillation issue

Transterrestrial Musing’s Rand Simberg has his views on the situation and he doesn’t like NASA’s answers either

Mars blog’s Thomas James takes his frustrations out on Ares and appears to suggest that the SRB first-stage should be replaced with a new cryogenic system that uses the Pratt & Whitney RS-68 engines that Ares V will use

Hobbyspace.com has some links to related Ares I articles

And finally, a guest poster on NASA deputy administrator Shana Dale’s blog writes about risk and humans
