“It may seem like a sort of an ending, and I suppose to a degree it is. The space shuttle has been with us at the heart and soul of the human spaceflight program for about 30 years, and it’s a little sad to see it go away,” commander Chris Ferguson said as the crew sat for a series of TV interviews Wednesday.
In the United States, millions of Americans have witnessed no other form of human space transport in their lifetime.
Commander Ferguson called on Americans back home to tune in to the final landing.
“Take a good look at it and make a memory,” he said, “because you’re never going to see anything like this again.”
