STS-135

[timtomairways]

The day i hoped to never see has arrived. I cant say im suprised.

I remeber watching the shuttel go up several times. I remember seeing it on the pad when i went to the space center as a littel 10year old in cub
scouts. Astonitshed by the Appolo rockets on display. and marveled at the beauty that is the space shuttle.

I rember watching in horror when culombia desintigrated. And now i try not to cry as we let what is the most important human endevor of all time die.
they say it could be another 5 years before another maned flight takes of fromUS soil.

i thought we where going to build a moon base, but now they are kiling the shuttle with no vehical to replace it.

before i get into a big political disscution. ill stop and post a few pics yall may enjoy

This is a slide show someone made, comprised of several pics of the earth viewed from the shuttle and the space station

watched the HD feed of the whole thing, lauch. docking. also was lucky enough to go outside and see the endeavour chasing the station about an hour
before they actually docked which was very cool to see.

unfortunately i got busy after that and didn't get to see the return home
