Can't help feeling a little sad. The same feeling when the Concorde was retired.
Its not sad that these awesome machines are being phased out. Machines/designs become old and obsolete all the time. But in this case, there is simply nothing better to replace it. It is as if this was as far as mankind could go and have to turn back.
Here's to hoping that some day there will something more ingenious that will be a worthy successor.
