A massive $349 million NASA tower completed in June has been "mothballed" in Gulfport, Mississippi, without ever being used.
The construction of the 30-story tower, designed to test a new rocket engine, had actually continued for several years after the project was officially scrubbed, according to The Washington Post.
The building, called the A-3 test stand, has been empty and locked up for months, but in fact, it already has been rendered useless in 2010 after the expensive rocket program had been canceled.
