Space Shuttle -II.
It was sad to see the retirement of the U.S. NASA Space shuttle program. I wonder when will there be a new one in the pipe-line?
Some would say 'it was nothing more than a glorified glider, rather than a powered aircraft.' But it did perform very well as a fine earth-space vehicle and was the only one of its kind.
NASA crews claim 'it was complicated to fly.' But I wonder why the robot technology used for the ill fated Soviet Russian Buran was not adopted into the NASA program, after the fall of communism?
