Well this is it folks.. It has been a fun ride.

It is a shame that I didn't get to see those birds launch in person. Oh well should have moved to Florida.

That is pretty cool, I heard a launch once I think all the way from Orlando a few years ago.

obama canceled work on the shuttles replacement, also.

Even at HuffPo, harshing Zero’s mellow:

The 2nd Assassination of JFK Premieres in Conjunction With the Atlantis Flight
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/mia-r-benenate/2nd-assassination-of-jfk_b_904320.html

[snip] In a speech given by President Barack Obama, in April of 2010 at Kennedy Space Center, his cavalier declaration that continued manned space exploration was unnecessary — a ‘we’ve been there, done that’ attitude — shocked and outraged those who’ve spent lifetimes working towards reaching for greatness in the stars... A thought-provoking film that sheds light on the alarming end of the US manned space program, I couldn’t help but wonder what the consequences of our current administration’s troubling lack of foresight regarding space exploration and its implication for future generations.

I honestly hope the Russians do it safe. Its all on their shoulders for awhile except for the unmanned launches.
