But for how long is the question. 

I think though that the shuttle design is still cool even after all these years they have been flying.  I'll be very interested in seeing the 2nd Generation of Shuttles.  (Lets face it, even the best thing in the world cannot go on forever).  Here's hoping that NASA keeps going!
