It's been a difficult ride at times, but for 30 years the shuttles captivated the world.
Sadly it was time to see them retire, but congratulations Shuttles, and congratulations America.

End of Space Shuttle missions...
At the last few minutes before touchdown of orbiter Atlantis this morning, my feeling was "awww, c'mon - 5 more minutes! 5 more minutes!?" The Shuttle program has had its ups and downs, but it has been an impressive trip. ![]()
I'm really glad to have shared what I did with this community and that y'all were interested in my comments. I'm no longer in the space industry at the moment, but as the private space industry and any new programs take shape, I look forward continuing to send along more good comments, thoughts, and insights.
Warmest wishes and blessings,
Shalin
