Default How long will it take to shut down the shuttles

With the station likely being unmanned, if its decided to never send another
crew the shuttles are a goner too.

Whats involved in shuttering the program and where will the orbiters be
residing?
HAVE A GREAT DAY!

And just where did you hear this? Do you have any references to back up
this assertion?

Haller is doing his usual shtick; taking something that was a possibility
(however remote) a few weeks ago, and applying his Chicken Little logic to
it. He then, of course, ignores everything else, like the fact that
station Commander Gennady Padalka was able to troubleshoot the problem
with help from Russian ground controllers, and the Elektron is now working
again.
