The Space Shuttle Returns

Posted by Zonk on from the been-a-long-road dept.

An anonymous reader writes "NASA's Return to Flight site details the space shuttle's to return to active use. The Flash intensive site features details on the mission, the crew, and the shuttle itself. Additionally, the site features none other than Scott Bakula as Captain Archer on the bridge of the Enterprise (USS, not STS)."

    Lets face it. The space shuttle is dangerous, very. They can mitigate the risks involved but never even come close to eliminating them all. Strapping a bunch of people to something akin to a small Nuclear bomb is never going to be safe.

    I hate to be the one that breaks up this party but I fully expect to see this one go the way of the last two. What will that do for the space program?
