Why were the shuttles retired? Would the tech have evolved to make them more effective and efficient? Why was there a return to rockets? Are they as reusable?
Thanks!
Frankly they’re really expensive to operate without much upside and if what you’re really trying to do is just going into space, a Soyuz is just much better. It’s well designed, infinitely cheaper to operate and doesn’t have any trouble connecting to the ISS.
