May the Stars ans Stripes always fly beyond the bounds of Earth.....now and forever!

Ironic to see an aircraft that hit's over 16,000 mph when it enters the earths atmosphere to be strapped on the back of an aircraft that can't even break the sound barrier... Great video!

shuttle = costly POS
-
need very long runway for takeoff
-
nor would the surfaces be in the correct positions
-
Absolutely NONE!!! The shuttle is setup to fly straight not up or down - the 747 DOES NOT need nor want any help!!!
-
i wonder how much of the shuttles dynamics effects how the aircraft flies, and does you shuttles controls surfaces move at all to assits the 747???

whoa thats a heavy load to carry, lots of pressure on plane and pilot!

It wasn't necessary to be that snooty ... the Constellation/Orion/Ares rocket system (the new Mars program on the drawing board) will be exactly as geocam2 described.
