yep, I think they really will, and two if they can get it in. But they realized after Challenger and were refreshed after Columbia that the space shuttle is not a shuttle to space, and they aren't going to do anymore throw away missions like keeping up the obsolete Hubble.

I think they really realize that the space shuttle is a fickle thing, and not especially safe, so they are going to treat it like that. I really hope they go through with Bush's plan and replace the shuttle with a modular capsule CEV, and as soon as possible. Actually, I hope I can become an aerospace engineer and help them make it.
