The bus has left ... safe trip to all 4 onboard !!

Couple of their onboard computers have died - one Sunday and another today.

Wonder what that was about?

We spend more on keeping the troops air conditioned than the entire NASA budget by 1,000,000,000 $

Mission complete.

Awesome job ... with this landing and the dismantling of NASA ends America's dominance in space.

We will have to look to Russia for technological leadership now the US is bankrupt.

Humiliating eh?

I have got a tear in my eye for the astronauts, engineers, and technicians who made all of this possible.

Now what do we put Bruce Willis on when that comet heads towards us?

I heard the layoffs were starting next week ...

 

[Reynod]

Its terrible ... dismantling NASA is like stripping the statue of Liberty for scrap iron.

What time did the shuttle land?

Around 11:30 ish (EST) last night I thought I saw a UFO.
