Calm down its only a heap of metal

NASA spent billions on this project
and you're saying "it's a cheap hunk of metal", come on you can do better at commenting on history.

--tractorman-- · « **Reply #40 on:** July 08, 2011, 19:35:23 »

I never said it was cheap

But really, it doesn't effect us. All it does it gives us some information about the solar system.

I remember the first launch of the Space Shuttle Columbia in April 1981. What a sensation, I was just a boy of 7 years old. I also remember the Challenger disaster in 1986 and the Columbia disaster in 2003.

The Space Shuttle Atlantis has berthed with the ISS

oceandream · « **Reply #48 on:** July 10, 2011, 19:19:52 »

Ballast · « **Reply #49 on:** July 10, 2011, 19:26:33 »
