@Pauline It would sure be a tragedy of the first order if we only "boldly go" to the stars in our imaginations in the future.
@Frances I have high hopes for private corps, but fear profit taking the pilot's seat over science may be a downfall. We'll see. Private corporation could have a lot to gain it terms of R&D and unique products and knowledge.
@Kaye Oh, yes. Loved the video, but the thought that it's all coming to an end makes me very melancholy. For so long the shuttle has been a shining icon of what we can achieve when we put our hearts and minds behind it.
Fun! Still can't believe shuttle program is ending. Wonder if we'll "boldly go" anywhere again? :-(
ReplyDeleteWery cool! Let's just hope one of the private corps steps up quickly! I'm going to miss those lift offs too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this Laurie. I feel sad and I hope it isn't going to end... maybe it won't really but still...
