NASA trying to rent or sell space shuttle facilities before they fall apart
Author: Dave Adams
In the wake of the space shuttle program’s retired life, NASA is entrusted sprawling centers at its Kennedy Area Center campus in Cape Canaveral that it not needs– centers that cost millions of dollars to keep. The Orlando Guard states that money isn’t designated to keep much of that maintenance going beyond this year, so the administration has actually started the process of communicating to exclusive sector to see who might be thinking about it. The bidding and proposal process is being held mostly in private to keep trade keys away from competitors– such are the perils of commercialized spaceflight– but the hope is to begin moving or leasing property in the following six months before engineering landmarks like …

Space Shuttle Atlantis hands-on: a look inside (video)
Author: Melissa Shroeder
Area Shuttles Discovery, Endeavour and Venture have all left Kennedy Room Center for new houses, but Atlantis? She’s remaining. Come November 2nd, the orbiter will be wheeled out to a 65,000-square-foot display, which is still being created at KSC’s visitor complex. Though the craft’s cargo bay doors will certainly be open and its remote manipulator arm expanded when its displayed, visitors will not be able to go up aboard it– or any of the additional shuttles, for that matter. However, we got the chance to go to Bay 2 of the Orbiter Processing Facility, action inside Atlantis and provide it the hands-on treatment. Watch out below for the gallery or hit the jump for the full video trip.

NASA and the US government may have moved on from the shuttle program, but it’s clear that the American people are still in love with our nation’s cosmic cargo planes. An estimated 20,000 people showed up at the Ames Research Center/Moffet Air Force Base in Mountain View, California this morning to see Endeavour buzz the tower. With so many folks itchin’ to see Endeavour’s farewell tour firsthand, the line to get in was lengthy, but we braved the crowds to bring you some shots of the action. Enjoy.

Space Shuttle Enterprise ready to go on display, space travel gets its fitting tribute
Author: Tiffany Shoman
The Venture has been on exactly what we might call a really leisurely trip around the East coast, but it’s at last time for the original Area Shuttle to settle down. As of Thursday, the only means to glance the prototype spacecraft will be under an inflatable roof at the Intrepid Sea, Air & Room Museum in New York City. It’s a quiet yet noble end for the automobile, which didn’t go on formal purposes but set the ground– sorry, spacework for the Shuttles that came later on. If you’re interested in seeing more animated forms of the Business’s legacy, you can either relax to watch its namesake TELEVISION franchise or follow the exclusive trips that owe it a debt of appreciation.

Boeing CST-100 capsule could shuttle astronauts to ISS, shows off its innards in Colorado Springs
Author: Rod Sutherland
With the Space Shuttle now officially grounded, NASA has been researching alternatives for ferrying astronauts from Earth to the International Space Station, orbiting some 230 miles above the planet. One such vehicle has made its way from Boeing’s HQ to the National Space Symposium in Colorado Springs, where a full-size model is on display for conference attendees. Externally, the spacecraft appears very similar to the reentry modules of yesteryear, measuring 14.5 feet with room for up to seven people. The craft is designed to make its way through the atmosphere mounted to an Atlas V rocket, and is rated for up to 10 roundtrip missions. As is typical with spacecraft, it looks like astronauts won’t be traveling with first-class accommodations — things will likely feel quite cozy when the CST-100 is at capacity — but such conditions come with the territory. There’s no date set for delivery, but the craft could be making its way to space as early as 2015, and has reportedly been tested in the Nevada desert as recently as this month.

Space Shuttle Sadness: ‘Astronaut Suicides’
Author:
This is a tasteless series of photographs entitled ‘Astronaut Suicides’, that captures the many day-dreamed deaths of an astronaut who just can’t bear life following the cancellation of the shuttle program. It brought tears to my eyes. Granted none of them actually fell because I dried them up with sandpaper, but they were there. Also: a rogue eyelash. F***ers always tryin’ to creep up in my eyeball. “What about pubes?” Ha, what ABOUT pubes?! Are you saying there’s one in my teeth?
Hit the jump for some more sadness from the series and hit the link after to see the graphic-er ones I didn’t feel comfortable seeing.
