I don't think that's correct. The crew were scheduled as normal for a future Apollo flight (that was then eventually budged canceled.) They then retired out during the wait for the space shuttle.
- in_cahoots 8y agoWikipedia points out that there was only one manned space flight in the decade following Skylab 4. I’m betting there were many astronauts who never flew again around that time period.
- Animats 8y agoYes. The US no longer has a manned spaceflight capability, but stlll has about 40 astronauts.
