Thirty years ago when I was a senior in high school my family got up on Sunday morning to watch this. As Columbia lifted off, we cheered loudly. As I watched the replays, I couldn't help thinking that this was the future.
Now, tragically, its part of the past.
It wasn't the politicians of either party that killed NASA, it was us.
WE, as a nation lost our will, ridiculed those who dreamed, wasted time and accomplished nothing.
Recognition :))
