Today marks the 25th Anniversary of the explosion of the space shuttle Challenger, and this year will mark the end of the space shuttle program in its entirety. Rather than focus on the tragedy and demise of a large part of the U.S. space program, I thought I'd share this flyer from a time when the shuttle program was viewed with optimism and excitement almost harkening back to the days of the Apollo program. The flyer is undated and is probably from about 1974. I've had it in my possession in all the years since I picked it up at some roadside stop all those decades ago.
This was just the thing I needed to see today. Thank you, John!
