As NASA prepares to launch STS-135, the final mission of the Space Shuttle program on July 8, they’ve released a new documentary to commemorate the 30-year program.
Narrated by Star Trek‘s William Shatner, “The Space Shuttle” takes a closer look at the history of this revolutionary program.
An idea born in unsettled times becomes a feat of engineering excellence. The most complex machine ever built to bring humans to and from space and eventually construct the next stop on the road to space exploration.
