About the Shuttles

[MackTheHunter]

        I actually feel truly important when it comes to the Space program, as should everyone. Everyone around my age, from this generation who was born and alive to see the space shuttles launch, to see Challenger destroyed and to see Columbia fall from the stratosphere on TV or with their own eyes, and every single individual child, teenager or young adult who watched the last shuttle mission and witnessed the NASA SCA take Endeavour to it's final resting place the past few days, we are all incredibly special. We all grew up through the Shuttle program's infancy and watched it pass away. We are the generation given the opportunity to tell our children and our children's children, yes, we saw the Space Shuttle. We saw it happen, and it was beautiful.

Goodnight, Enterprise, Columbia, Challenger, Discovery, Atlantis and Endeavour - It was an amazing ride.

Can't wait to see what's next, NASA.

My science teacher saw the launch in person. She got picked to go there.

Who knows, maybe NASA will find another planet in a close galaxy, and it's atmosphere was similar to Earth.

^ NASA is going to be phasing into just an organization that pays private companies to do most of the real stuff.

I really hope they look into terraforming
That would be awesome

[Moppy]

I hope they go on to invent the warp drive.

i never put much special interest on the shuttle launches, though i'd imagine that's because i live close enough to see anything nasa launches

and SpaceX shall help NASA by building some of their spaceship stuff

I saw the 747 and the shuttle fly pretty close to our high school. Two fighter jets were following it.
