That could be an excuse to throw the money away except for the fact that it doesn't do that.I make no bones about my moral support for [terrorist] organizations. - chegitz guevara
For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator Rubio -

Echelon costs a whole heluva lot more than $3 billion, I assure you.
But this has little to do with Echelon.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

Do it! It looks cool!

Another thing worth mentioning is the plethora of national sattelites which are out there crossing the earth's orbit.
Greece by itself will have 2 cutting edge military/communications sattelites by 2004.
Hook up all the national european sattelites and you have a network that only dreams can match

BTW about Echelon, if Britain, BRITAIN, HELLO BRITAIN? decides to close down all your infastructrure in its soil (the only european country which has accepted her soil to bu used as base for the US Echelion) your system will become much more blind in what regards Europe
There was an official research about this done by the European Parliement.Comment

I agree, shut it down. But I think it is some kind of joint project. Personally I think our attention should be turned to projects European rather than our 'loose cannon' allies the US.Speaking of Erith:

It isn't in Britain's nature to openly disagree with the US.

There is another factor: charge-of-work to European Space Industry, one of few technologic fields where Europe is now dominant.
Many times the countries protect theirs industries with a 'technical more advanced regulation' that have few aventages. For example, there was the Law-A, Law-U in Telecommunication
But I think that Galileo has enough adventages to do it.

yaroslav: your English is fine.
"one of few technologic fields where Europe is now dominant"
Europe, minus Russia, Ukraine, and Kazakhstan is near the bottom of space technology--about 1/3 of the flights that the US does. Galileo would represent about half of all ESA flights, if they are to have a 30-satellite constellation by 2008.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

Such as? The ~2.4 meter difference between the two systems hardly seems like enough of an improvement to justify the billions needed to instal it.Originally posted by yaroslav
