Very Cool. But, they could have put some better seats in that ride considering the money it cost to build

You know I take a wild stab in the dark here but considering that some of the most brilliant heads in america build this thing I would say they had good reason not to put seats in there.

You're weightless most of the time so who gives a fuck what the seats feel like.

Space shuttle has been generally referred as the most complex thing humans have ever built.


I only know two countries that have built a space shuttle........... what that tells about the rest of the world I don't want to know.

Q: What do you need to land the space shuttle from orbit?

A: The autopilot, an astronaut and a dog. The autopilot to land the shuttle, and the dog to bite the astronauts arm if he tries to touch something.

I don't know if this is a joke or something a real astronaut once said, but it has truth to it.

Pulling the g's on takeoff and landing must be fun in those seats. Of course the best ideas were farmed out to the lowest bidder

Dude its not a fucking fighter jet, they do entry level and stay pretty steady all the way, I don't think there is any G's involved.

Just your average control room from where a Getbigger delivers most of his ownings. Nothing to see here.

I guess it was a good Practice that NASA only selected a Few Great Pilots to be Commander and co-pilot to fly this thing.....in other words, if you're an avarage pilot, you will never set foot in this cockpit......

hahahahahha....I heard that joke before too.......I guess the complexity of that shuttle had to require very little human intervention....because they know that any human error would be catastrophic.......the commander only take control at 5,000 feet to align and land it on the spot.......Damn.

Then what do you need with a good pilot?

I guess it was a good Practice that NASA only selected a Few Great Pilots to be Commander and co-pilot to fly this thing.....in other words, if you're an avarage pilot, you will never set foot in this cockpit......

America should have transitioned from the X projects straight into orbital flight.  If the same money NASA burned through would have been invested in developing existing technology, you'd have high performance planes capable of space flight rather than flying bricks.
