What makes you think it was?

That Moon surface suit is an early 1960s design, the Apollo 11 suit is more advanced, wtf.

I'd love to compare these to the SpaceX suit designs. I'll bet theirs are much more inspiring.

I only hope that when they get to the moon or mars or whatever that as the woman is getting out the male just barrels through her down the steps. Would make for some great memories for decades.

How can we make it to the moon if we have to stop every 2 hours for the women to pee?

Didn't Obama kill the shuttle program about the same time Obamaphones came out for the poors? Money well spent.

Could do the whole mission nowadays with an iPhone 10 and a Subaru. Seriously the 1960's tech was incredibly primitive by today's standards. We could do so much more if only we had the desire and support.

In the 60s, going to the Moon was up there with Vietnam as a national priority. NASA has nowhere near the level of funding in 2019 as they did in 1969.
