Just read about this today, very sad to hear to this especially after I watched Goldeneye again this year for its 25th anniversary.

I went there back in 2002. It really does look like something out of a James Bond film - by that I mean it's genuinely startling and surely, you tell yourself, this is out of a sci-fi writer's imagination.
Its decline rather hints at the inability of the US to maintain its space exploration and research program without the assistance, financial or scientific, from other nations.

Yes, I saw that. On top of Sean Bean, no less.

Crikey. Glad they closed it down before that happened. A shame, but in technology terms, it was a bit of a pensioner.
