We should not have to rely on the russians anyways. Another stellar move by obama.


"When the US space station evolved into the International Space Station project, which suffered from long delays and design changes before it could be completed, the service life of the Space Shuttle was extended several times until 2011, serving at least 15 years longer than it was originally designed to do. Discovery was the first of NASA's three remaining operational Space Shuttles to be retired"

You know we have a company called SpaceX that we will soon rely on?  I thought Republicans wanted privatization of everything?  So you should be happy.
