the shuttle was a great idea poorly executed and remainded way too long

When should it have been permanently grounded, in your opinion?

Right after it's "execution" by Reagan/Bush/Graham (Challenger
destroyed; shuttle grounded nearly three years; endless Thiokol pork
barrel in Utah)?

Right after its "execution" by GWB/Cheney/O'Keefe (Columbia destroyed;
shuttle grounded; endless Lockheed pork barrel in Louisiana)?

Maybe you think it should have been grounded before it flew, say in
the Carter administration?

JTM

should of haver been certified for manned flight without launch boost
escape.....

and remained in service way too long, should of been been replaced
after challenger.......

iss SHOULDNT HAVE been designed to use it

Wrong. The ISS wouldn't exist without the shuttle. ISS existed to
give the shuttle something to do
