Last Shuttle Down

And things went well.  But the slight sting of the last STS flight happening – with no clear follow-on manned program in sight – on the 42nd anniversary of the first moonwalk should not be lost on anyone.


Here's to what's next!  Whatever that may be.  SpaceX's Dragon capsule has already flown, so maybe we won't have a repeat of that six year Apollo-to-Shuttle gap.
