May We Continue to Boldly Go Someday

And as the last Space Shuttle is wheeled to its final storage, so the dream of President Kennedy and the nation, for manned exploration of space comes to an end. I feel for the employees of NASA and all the subcontractors who have spent their lives building this program only to see it end with no real plan for the future. They gave us so much more than travel to space, they gave us hope and dreams of a future. How many of us didn't at some point drink Tang and hope to be an astronaut also? Hopefully some future generation will revive the program.
