This is quit a achievement, but I don't know the point of this mission. Are we going to give up on man flight and use space probes only? It is scientific curiosity or human hubris? This month is suppose to be the first shuttle launch since the Columbia disaster, and it will mark the beginning of end for the Shuttle project, due to end in 2010.

I want to know what is next, and will we finally bold go where no one has gone before, or continue to putter around in orbit with that white elephant the International Space Station. We need to decide if space is truly a limit on human endeavor or something we can conquer. Is space travel just to expensive and beyond our scientific capability or can the faith of a muster seed take us to the stars?
