I'm amazed to learn that NASA is still uses stone age measurements after
working on the INTERNATIONAL Space Station for so many years.
American technology companies have used SI measurements for decades,
especially now that design, suppliers, manufacturing, and markets are
global.
Good for NASA for FINALLY adopting SI measurements. Hopefully they know
to use the word Celsius, not Centigrade. ;-)
