Deep Space Is Next Aim for NASA After Shuttles

SHIRLEY GRIFFITH: Welcome to THIS IS AMERICA in VOA Special English. I'm Shirley Griffith.

CHRISTOPHER CRUISE: And I'm Christopher Cruise. This week on our program, we look at the American space program and its future. And we talk with Buzz Aldrin. Forty-two years ago this week, he became the second person ever to walk on the moon.

(MUSIC)

SHIRLEY GRIFFITH: Shuttle Atlantis is days away from landing in the history books as the last space shuttle flight. NASA, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, is retiring the shuttles after thirty years. Huge crowds gathered on July eighth to watch the launch from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

NASA ANNOUNCER: " ... and liftoff -- the final liftoff of Atlantis. On the shoulders of the space shuttle, America will continue the dream."

ATLANTIS: "The program, Houston."

MISSION CONTROL: "Roger, roll, Atlantis."

SECOND NASA ANNOUNCER: "Houston now controlling the flight of Atlantis. The space shuttle spreads its wings one final time for the start of a sentimental journey into history."

Atlantis carried four astronauts and tons of supplies to the six crew members on the International Space Station. The cargo included science equipment, extra parts, clothing and a year's supply of food.

NASA is working with several companies to develop vehicles to replace the shuttles. Until then, Russian Soyuz spacecraft will carry Americans to and from the space station. Russian, European and Japanese cargo spacecraft will continue their resupply and waste disposal flights to the orbiting laboratory.

CHRISTOPHER CRUISE: The space station is in low-Earth orbit. NASA will turn its attention to deep space.

Space exploration creates science. But the space program also creates jobs. For the shuttle program, NASA came to depend mostly on workers from private companies instead of government employees. The remaining several thousand contractors have no guarantee of work now that the program is over.

Last year Congress ordered NASA to develop a new Space Launch System that could be powerful enough to rocket crews into deep space. But some in Congress want to cancel plans for the next-generation replacement for the orbiting Hubble Space Telescope. The James Webb Space Telescope, named for a former NASA chief, is late and over budget.

President George W. Bush set a goal to return to the moon by twenty twenty, as the launching point for missions farther into space. President Obama canceled those plans. He announced his own plan for space exploration in a speech last year at the Kennedy Space Center.
