This is a microcosm that is representative of the sad current day reality of our Nation. We did more with fricking slide rules in the 60’s.
We are back-sliding in so many areas of achievement. It’s as though we don’t have the collective will for it, and the massive waste and corruption in the federal government compounds it exponentially.

Yeah, it's like how the hell could they send guys to the moon 50 years ago when the moon is 230,000 miles from earth and through a radiation belt. But nowadays they only send astronauts to the international space station that is 254 miles away.

Our space program may be a joke but NASA is more diverse now. Gotta break a few eggs to make an omelet.

Things are not much different today than the 60s, contractors designed and built the hardware based on NASA guidelines, but instead of SpaceX and Blue Origin it was Lockeed, Grumman, Boeing, Etc. They difference today is the amount of federal money that gets budgeted for space programs.
