  • GLAD IT'S OVER...WASTE OF MONEY....BUY LEARNING MATERIALS FOR THESE FAILING SCHOOLS OF AMERICA....DEMOCRACKKKS....

  • This is so terrible that we can spend billions upon billions on wars, social programs, and countless other money pits that are little better than useless, but we're stopping this.

  • if people noticed it was stated that it would be the last low orbit explorations its not over they will need to go farther and they will thers no way the us will give up space its to much of a stratigic place for us

  • My understanding for why they stopped using shuttles aside... This makes me sad for nostalgic reasons. The space program, for my entire life, was the shuttle. Sad to see it go.

  • Lol now you americans are gonna have to use russia space ship for future missions what complete fail

  • ssfsf

  • This is MEDIA HYPE for the masses to chew on.A book (Spies for hire),shows also for the masses,CIA CUTS BUDGET IN HALF,people say good job Mr,President,see he is watching out for us,paying those men $200. an hour,ridiculous.Privatized businesses,set up in secret,National Security and such.ALL of the let go CIA,run them,same men,but at $980.dollars an hour. and up.So again,.."fooled ya ".Same with the people a NASA,you'll never know.

  • @TheDeparted112570 If the russains are still there then why did we stop? this makes less sense, blow it the fuck up

  • Comment removed

  • @MrJerkinp that make more sense, the more i researched this the more it made my head turn, but thanks for enlightening me

  • @MrJerkinp "the shuttle cost hundred billion dollars for each launch"

    There were over 100 shuttle launches. Do you really think the shuttle program cost $10 trillion?

  • @hitssquad Your right its each mission and the cost is far more less. In 2011, the incremental cost per flight of the Space Shuttle was estimated at $450 million not billion. When all design and maintenance costs are taken into account, the final cost of the Space Shuttle program, averaged over all missions and adjusted for inflation, was estimated to come out to $1.5 billion per launch.

  • What are they gonna do with the international space station?

    leaving it there?

  • The Deep Space 9 station looks better. The international space center looks like a floating junk pile.

  • isn't today the day that men first walked on the moon?

  • Makes no sense to me. 

  • just kill the Indians and change the shuttle into a disco. done

  • @MrPatchesPal You just said yourself those 3 votes cost 200B. Why would you blame POTUS for that and not those refusing to vote w/o the 200B?

  • `1:05 Groooooovy

  • Was this date picked on purpose?

  • @MrPatchesPal its not obamas fault we need to be able to AFFORD the shuttle. you think the next puppet will do anything diff? nasa needs to cut the fat. the shuttle shouldve been updated years ago, do you or do you not agree.

  • @VeNeM999 - For every $1 of taxpayer money spent on NASA space exploration, the taxpayer gets a return of $13. The NASA space program is a huge money and job maker for millions of people. NASA isn't, "fat".

  • @JohnQuincyAdams1 "For every $1 of taxpayer money spent on NASA space exploration, the taxpayer gets a return of $13."

    How?

  • @MrPatchesPal It can carry a payload of approximately 25 metric ton into orbit despite which is poor considering the magnitude of each launch and the cost of each launch. The Shuttle is essentially 100 metric ton of dead weight. The replacement to the shuttle should have a similar cost per launch but without the 100 tonne dead weight - or in other words a 120 metric ton payload. Essentially 5 times more capable for a similar cost or approximately as powerful as a moon rocket. search > flaming

  • goodbye obsolete fake shuttle program

  • To be truthful this makes me way more sad then the whole Casey Anthony crap.

  • lucky people who retired from nasa the last 30 yrs sucks for the current

  • And a grand start to China's Space industry where they will eventually lock us out of going into space without paying them.

  • @snowleopard1986 lol ... me too ... lol .....//3384 prepare 

  • why the hell can't they go to moon more often?

  • @fellerredseller Maybe because that never happened in the first place, I mean think about it, compare the technology between 1969 and now. One would think we are more advance to go to the moon instead of just talking about it.

  • This video has been added to your Favorites. 

  • @MUTANTHEROD2012 lol i think u did something wrong? xD

  • Blame Obama.

  • @dreamslovesoul Did you watch the video..? They knew the space shuttle program was gonna end since 2004.. How is it Obama fault..??? lmaol.. If you gonna blame someone its Bush.. BUT its no one fault.. NASA is not doing space travel no more.. but others will..

  • Comment removed

  • Everyone down here in Houston know damn well who to blame. You would know who to point fingers at when you live and work with NASA.

  • I like the video, but I am disappointed that this is the end of the space shuttle program. I believe that the Obama administration is headed down the wrong path for future space exploration.

  • @demorra actually the right way never was the space shuttle. It never did what it was advertised to of do. The right way is FTL transport, which I don't think you guys will achieve until 2063.

  • @cagedtigersteve "The right way is FTL transport, which I don't think you guys will achieve until 2063."

    How many gees of acceleration? Getting just to 70% light-speed takes 5.5 months at 1.5 gees: pandorapedia. com/human_operations/vehicles/ isv_venture_star

  • @demorra - The Obama administration is headed down the wrong path with *everything*!

  • fuck the Shuttle Landing i hope blows up

  • duarte4777

  • @duarte4777

    Fuck you and your scree name. That's enough duarte. No one gives a shit that your name is "duarte4777"- stop posting it on News videos.

  • @LuckyDukeSeven

    fuck.

  • A BANG OR A WHIMPER? WE'LL FIND OUT SOON.

  • i hope it crashed into casey anthony :)

  • I can't see this lasting for long to vital to stop the funding.

  • @GreeZy0121 they're just stopping funding towards "low orbit" missions, Obama said he wants nasa to word on a mission to mars, all the while backing "private" companies to study low orbit shuttles and probes and what not. Dont worry we're not the only nation to be doing this type of stuff. China has had its foot in the door for a while as well...

  • @VoLCoMzYaDiGG Good, thanks for the reply man.

  • @VoLCoMzYaDiGG Sir Richard Branson. All I have to say about that. :D

  • good riddance.........

    We've already fucked up the earth, and have started on fucking up space with tons of rubbish floating around.

  • @tradernorton05 We can't really "fuck up space"

  • @thekiller678

    I'm sure people said the same thing about earth 100 years ago.

    Give humans enough time, and we'll fuck up anything beyond repair.

  • @tradernorton05 humans are just as "natural" as any other animal or plant in the universe

  • @desirefirst

    Yes, humans are natural.

    However, we are incredibly disgusting and destructive

  • @tradernorton05 Agreed. With every once of everything in my body.

  • it would crasy if atlantis blew up on entry

  • @JogBird why would you even say that?..

  • How long it will be in that museum? A thousand years? I wonder what will finally end its 'life'.

  • sorry to see it go. but we need to cut the military next. this governments out of control spending has brought this type of cuts... When we become solvent again we can think about NASS once again....

  • @2xtream "we need to cut the military next" ...... REALLY?? are you a moron?

  • @obsydiandreams Cuts are what is needed. But you to, you heard "Eliminate" which is not what was said. So who is the moron? Some O'Dumbocrat that only hears what they want. Yes we need to CUT the Military as America can NOT afford to be the worlds police... Time for you to understand basic economics same for O'Dumbo... We cut those programs fist before we begin to even think about cutting basic needs of Americans in our homeland. NO Americans don't need to spend Billions on NASA's Dreams atm

  • @2xtream here here!!!

  • gg space program. lets hope politics dont bring it all down.

  • Not funding nasa will prove to be a costly mistake. NASA has adapted their tech to consumer use and has changed all of your lives. The space is the future. the new frontier. imagine if spain stopped funding Christopher culumbo

  • @cakelover33 Columbus? BTW he didn't even discover America he discovered the islands in the Caribbeans. The fact we have a holiday for him is absurd. Not to mention he slaughtered countless Indians.

  • @thekiller678 he changed his name, it WAS columbo. i just use it cuz it sounds cooler, and joseph stalin slaughtered countless Ukrainians and hitler slaughtered countless jews and so on and so on. not news its life

  • @thekiller678 Columbus? Himself? Slaughtered "countless" Indians?  you're a fucking idiot

  • @desirefirst nah

  • @thekiller678 and also he kinda made everybody call native americans indiands because he thought they landed in india

  • @thekiller678 NOW I HAVE TO FIND CAKELOVER33'S COMMENT. THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!!!

  • @Roger5970 My evil plan is working, yes yes hehehehe

  • @thekiller678 and the Caribbeans isn't a part of America?

  • @cagedtigersteve By America i meant USA. And no, they are not part of USA.

  • @thekiller678 oh so Puerto Rico isn't a part of the USA?

  • @thekiller678

    >not to mention he slaughtered countless indians

    >slaughtered countless indians

    >indians

  • @thekiller678 - How many countless white people were slaughtered by the Indians, eh? I am going to take a guess that you are liberal? 

  • @JohnQuincyAdams1 No shit white people were slaughtered they were invading the land, killing Natives, and spreading diseases Natives had no immunity against. How would you react to foreigners obliterating your civilization? Let me guess you are a moron?

  • @thekiller678 aliens. today. come and spread diseases. kill and slave us. with their shinny armors and big guns. rape our women and kill our children. you got a movie.

  • @thekiller678 He didn't slaughter anyone.

    It is true that a lot of Indians died but not because Columbus slaughted them.

    They had no protection against the common cold which they caught from Columbus's men and died from something that normally people just have some discomfort.

  • @bornbillsmith Yes I know about the diseases and I exaggerated when I said "countless" Indians. But Columbus and his men did enslave Natives they ran in to and they did, perhaps not Columbus personally, kill some.

  • @thekiller678 Native Americans...

  • @thekiller678 --The Caribbean?Yes Columbus was there too.San Salvador,South America,was first,when Columbus was showing The Queen of Spain,the map that he had made "What shall be the name?" The map makers name written,lower right rather large,AMERIGO VASPUCCI,so at the time Latin was used,and it was known as AMERICA.The name spread to Central,and then North America.What is absurd is your lack of history.The head,Captain of the soldiers sent with him,for his protection?Did the killing.

  • @thekiller678 He personally didn't slaughter countless Indians. And all you people who say he didn't discover the Americas are idiots. When they say he discovered the Americas it's because he was the first explorer to make it there and then come back to tell Europa about it. He was the man who opened up the Americas for exploration. No one before did that on a world wide scale. What happened after that, the slaughter of Indians, was done by the Spanish, Portuguese, and countless others.

  • @cakelover33 the shuttle needs updating, its too heavy as it is. when they redesign the shuttle maybe theyll actually let nasa launch, for now the military has its own program.

  • @VeNeM999 They need a space shuttle that can go in deep space.

  • If HR 2306 were to pass the government could use the taxes from that bill and keep NASA afloat. Sadly, Lamar Smith is a dick and congress sucks.

  • i think someone subs to AP News just to dislike each new video for no apparent reason.

  • @Enviousgamer23 I know right! Why would anyone dislike a video like this? I just don't get it...

  • Well at least their not wasting gas anymore.

  • @TideFalconFan "Well at least their not wasting gas anymore."

    It ran on hydrogen.

  • @hitssquad You don't take sarcasm to well I'm guessing?

  • @hempartist420 More accurate > America is broke and is also a joke...

  • its da last cause dey found a ship like in transformers lol

  • why the last??????

  • @RHYMePRIMe Because NASA is investing into the private sector which will allow us to go into space A LOT cheaper. Also to focus on going deeper into Space..
