Tonight is the landing of the last U.S. shuttle mission ever, thanks to George Bush and President Obama.
From Fox News: There's just one more day in orbit left for the four astronauts on space shuttle Atlantis, the last men and women ever to fly on a NASA shuttle.
Commander Chris Ferguson and his crew have worked steadily and successfully through the bulk of their 13-day mission. The astronauts departed the International Space Station July 19, after delivering a huge load of backup hardware and supplies. [Photos: Shuttle Bids Farewell to Space Station]
Now Atlantis is packed to the brim with trash and other items to be brought back to Earth, and the astronauts are making their final preparations for a planned predawn landing on Thursday, July 21, at 4:49 a.m. EDT

After tomorrow, there will be thousands of NASA employees unemployed because of the U.S. failures to continue with manned flight, which is the fault of Obama.
From The Telegraph: Charles Bolden, a retired United States Marines Corps major-general and former astronaut, said in an interview with al-Jazeera that Nasa was not only a space exploration agency but also an "Earth improvement agency".
Mr Bolden said: "When I became the Nasa administrator, he [Mr Obama] charged me with three things.
"One, he wanted me to help reinspire children to want to get into science and math; he wanted me to expand our international relationships; and third, and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math, and engineering."
He added: "It is a matter of trying to reach out and get the best of all worlds, if you will, and there is much to be gained by drawing in the contributions that are possible from the Muslim [nations]."
Byron York, a conservative columnist for the Washington Examiner, characterised Mr Obama's space policy shift as moving "from moon landings to promoting self-esteem"

Yep, that's what Obama wants NASA to become, reaching out to Muslims.
And liberals wonder why many people think Obama is a closet Muslim and a destroyer of NASA.
