It amazes me that there were never any landing failures on any of the shuttle missions. They had one shot at it, and were perfect every time.

Considering the complexities involved in each landing, it is indeed amazing. Good luck to all other nations that try to emulate that record in the future.

I miss the Shuttle program.

Space Exploration is important, and inspiring, and we ought to do even more of it.
