its not our last, just the last this shuttle generation.
when the shuttle program came to existence, it solved huge problems in cost, safety and in technologies. this was around 30 years ago, now it is time to rework this launch process. we can do it cheaper, quicker and safer which requires a new generation of spacecrafts.
with all the dependence in low /high orbit satellites, all the technology advancements, R&D; i dont see how could we not have a space program and mind you this is not the end for NASA; just a new chapter. progress happens..
