What next?

Didnt nasa recently suggest keeping ONE shuttle in flyable condition
just n case it was needed?

Actually rather than ARES they should of built shuttle C and keeping
the same mold lines could of launched shuttles at a low rate
indefinetely, had a pretty good cargo capacity and perhaps a shuttle C
variant as a capsule launcher.....

So sad missed opportunities

No, United Space Alliance talked about keeping two Shuttles flying
commercially. Not just one, because they knew NASA would never approve
having no LON Shuttle.

The proposal went nowhere.

Actually rather than ARES they should of
