With the Space Transportation System winding down NASA is looking to sell the Space Shuttle. In 2008 the Government agency quoted a price of $42 Million to buy an orbiter. A couple of weeks ago that price was slashed!




where is the buy it now button
All the same??? That’s like calling the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) and the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-A) the same.
……..!
Do we know how many space shuttle mission are left before they retire????
@KKM121 There are 5 missions left.
Can I just have one of those and build my own Space Agency?;)
You guys are funny! ‘all the orbiters are the same….’ $28.8M sounds like a bargain! what’s that in Sterling?

And, Ben, you truly are a giant among geek husbands… stooping to the space geek blasphemy of saying all the orbiters are all the same, just to make your beloved happy. THAT’s priceless.
A little too big for my backyard.
Cradle of Aviation Museum in Long Island should get it. They have the Apollo 18 LM-13!
