I thought this was a fitting item for the first day of the post-Space Shuttle era.

I wonder if the Hayden Planetarium kept these applications from 1952 on file down to the present?

So sad that the shuttle program has ended. We should have been building on that technology instead of just running those wonderful machines to death and giving up on space. Tragic.
