The Space Shuttle Program dominated the United States space effort from 1981 to 2011. In its thirty years the program had its share of disasters, of mixed results, and of outright triumphs. This special photographic section attempts to document the end of the Space Shuttle Program through the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex KSC Up-Close Tours and other rare opportunities that come along to witness the end of this historic enterprise.
