Looks like it was a good launch. It's a shame they are shutting it down.

I think the shame is that they don't have something in place to replace it. The fleet is old and past it's prime. We should have developed a replacement by now.

There will be no more manned flights by the US. From here on out, only unmanned rockets and then pay the Russians to launch Americans into space.

Which, based on his recent comments, probably pisses John Glenn off pretty good.
