NASA makes history once again: the last shuttle launch

 Roaming around the offices at NASA Langley Research Center, televisions and conference rooms are all projecting the same tune. Coverage of NASA's last ever shuttle launch. Atlantis.

A sad day indeed, but also an overwhelming sense of accomplishment of how far NASA has come. Though NASA's budget has waivered tremedously, its name will always hold a place in this Universe and is still inspiring millions around the world, whether to create NASA's next mission or make a movie.

Lets take Transformers 3 for example. NASA was the plot of the whole movie.
And it was a great movie if I do say so.

Whether a movie or a mission to MARS, NASA will continue to greatly impact the world with its current and future missions.
 
So as the last shuttle launch now has made its mark in history, remember, its not the end of NASA, but only the beginning of a new and ongoing journey.
