The Space Shuttle program lasted 30 years, one of the longest space programs in history. The completion of construction of the International Space Station led The United States Congress to direct NASA to focus it's efforts beyond Low Earth Orbit. Initially this took the form of the Constellation program which was later canceled with only the Orion, later named Multi-Purpose Crew Module retained from that program.
