I don’t know, is it really sad that the Space Shuttle program ended?
Uh, not really.
And, really, there wasn’t a chance that it could have worked out – check out this prescient bit from three decades ago from college-boy Gregg Easterbrook, if you want.
And realize that each launch ended up costing $1.5 billion.
Oh well.
Adieu, Space Shuttle:
