Last Shuttle Booster Segments Arrive at KSC, Ken Kremer
“In another sign that NASA’s space shuttle program is winding down to retirement, the very last segments for the shuttles mighty Solid Rocket Boosters arrived by train in Florida on Thursday, May 27. Six railroad cars loaded with the last booster segments traveleled across the country, starting from their production facility at the ATK solid rocket booster plant in Promontory, Utah. An ATK spokesman told me that “over 1500 workers have already been laid off” as the booster production lines have been progressively curtailed and shut down.”
