Fancy a Space Shuttle from NASA?

If unlike me, you have a mere £26 million sitting in the bank and fancy a Space Shuttle from NASA then you're in luck.

Yes, that's right, NASA are selling three Space Shuttles because wait for it, they need the money.

Yes, the most powerful and richest country on Earth, not yet a superpower of the Universe, hasn't got enough cash to keep-up the space programme.

Now I know there is a recession on but you kind of think America could have chucked in a few more billions of dollars to make end meet when we're looking at the human race from living up above once we've polluted and destroyed planet Earth, wouldn't you?

Now it will cost £4 million making it safe in other words making sure you can't just do your own DIY space travel or heaven forbid compete with NASA, and this includes postage and packaging the Royal Mail could do with this money too!

I suppose Iran and North Korea couldn't buy one, just a thought?
