Space Shuttle confusion
by Tyrone Steels II
Maybe it's just me, but why does the space shuttle seem more delicate than a 747? Yes I know the space shuttle glides without engine power during the landing process and needs perfect conditions but...
It just seems that we should be building a more robust space vehicle. Can't we build something that re-enters the Earth's atmosphere and powers its way to a landing? Can we build something that doesn't need thermal blankets (I love mine) in order to take the heat? Where's that grand ol' American ingenuity?
