A sad finality, to a Country, OUR American Country, that will NO longer have a manned space vehicle....OBTW, How's that NASA now being in charge of a Muslim-American Relations thing workin'?

Thanks BHO. Now we can PAY to transport Astronauts to space on Russian, or another countries space ships....

Good Call.

And the Russians wasted no time in hiking the price by 20% for our Astronauts from $51 Million to $62.7 Million U.S.D. per trip! By the time they're done we would have been cheaper off keeping the Shuttle flying.  Bill T.
