Years behind schedule, criminally over budget...Project scrubbed. NASA couldn't get its shit together.
We went from zero to the moon in ten years, now NASA with 20 or more years to prepare couldn't have the shuttle's replacement ready? The damn thing should be operational. Absolutely no excuse for it.
This is why you don't want the government involved in the space program...or ANY program for that matter.
I'm sort of excited that I'll be able to see people go to the moon in my lifetime, but, in all honesty, isn't it a little bit dumb that we're going back?
I'm not saying it's dumb just because we're going back, what I mean is, the first couple of times we went, we should have learned something about going to Mars. Who knows, if we had done that, maybe we'd be exploring Saturn's moons or reaping the benefits of natural resources found in space.
It's a shame we haven't sent anyone to the moon for so many years and still won't for another 9. Sure, technology has advanced a lot, but still, if we had kept sending people to the moon we probably would've had bases there by now and even more advanced space technology. Oh well, live and learn.
There's a mountain of evidence that the Apollo moon missions were faked. I posted a partial summary of it on a science forum. Google "The Naked Scientists". In the "New Theories" section of the forum there's a thread entitled "Did We Land on the Moon?". The summary is on page 15. It's the 7th post from the top.
People who still think they went to the moon simply haven't seen the hoax evidence yet.
Looks like Disney World, where is commander rockefeller? time for the New Space Order, ig 250billion Euros isnt too much for this animation, the low price is cause it's economie crisis.
It's possible, but harder to do. First, the original fuel tank and boosters were designed to take them into orbit, not out, so you will need MUCH larger rockets to do the job. Plus, even if we carried the lander in the cargo bay, we would have to modify the shuttle to allow docking at the nose. After all of that, I hope we still have enough fuel in the orbiter to get back!
almost like the apollo missions.....why dont they use the shuttle, and go to the moon then deploy the lander from the cargo hold?...saves having to go back to the 60's!!!
At very end - ground-lading vs sea as for Apollo? I suppose coming down hard would not make much of a difference for the crew (hard landing is a huge G force whether ground or water)
space shuttle is 30 years old so the shuttle will retire in 2010. remember the insident of Columbia whare it blew up in rentry, those cracks on the shuttle are getting worse and worse,
yep, its too old. The shuttle concept is fantastic, extremely versatile but a lot complicated, lots of thing can get wrong , and a hell expensive. Sorry, back to the 60s with 2000 electronics, not bad either.
Friscasso. What a stupid comment. They do not have a habit of blowing up in mid air. If you mean Challenger, and knowing you, Columbia. The orbiter was not at fault. They are NOT "falling apart" and they are even looking at extending their operations to 2015. Plus, this video is outdated. Orion's SM looks completely different now. Can't get over how stupid your comment was, nevermind how utterly disrespectful it is.
they cant use a space shuttle because its not built for landing they use the lander because its built for landing its would be like making a helicopter go underwater

The space shuttle is 30 year old junk. They need replacing because they're falling apart and have a habit of randomly exploding in mid-air.
