Nasa only builds animations and prototypes these days. Seems like the Ares 1 will be canceled as well. America is no leader in Science nor Space anymore. Oh well.... they had a good couple of decades.
@EUROSUN1 Agreed. Back in the late 80s early 90s we used to have a joke that the platform that a certain database product ran on was PowerPoint. Now days I think the only place that Nasa executes space missions is on quicktime.
