New Era of Spaceflights – NASA

After the Apollo program, the Space Shuttle program has dominated through the last 30 years and performed the space research, launched satellites and installed the international space stations. Now, when the Space Shuttle era is over, NASA is entering into a completely new chapter of the human spaceflights. The further advancement is partly seen in stimulating a private sector for development of transportation capabilities. Thus, in the future, transportation services would be available to private sector companies.
