Our space shuttle came to and end. Stopped. Is no more.
We shall now be hitchhiking rides into space with Russia for around Two-million a seat. Because we can totally afford to take that much money out of our country's funding, instead of at least putting it back into our own economy for fuel/shuttle building/etc.
Huh. Way to go, Obama administration & Co.
Personaly,I find it funny that our first voyage to space started out in the great space race AGAINST the U.S.S.R, and now we're paying THEM to give US a ride, even though we won that race? Hmm.. Something's odd here..
