Thanks to men like these:
With a sympathetic nod to Mrs. Morgan and Mrs Northcutt of course.
Anyway, after 1972 the culture wars set in for earnest and this is where it got us, in the ladies' restrooms. President Trump vows the US will be back on the Moon by 2024 but honestly, I don't see how this is possible. Especially since his predecessor - cursed be his name - shelved the Constellation Program back in 2011 already.
If that promise has to come true, luckily there's one thing that has changed for the better vis-à-vis the days of the Apollo Project, and that is the greater potential, involvement and impetus of the private sector. In an era where the State's size has grown orders of magnitude compared to the late sixties/early seventies yet is not capable anymore of the feats of half a century ago, the cockyness and sheer potential of private enterprise provides consolation and... some sort of karma.
MFBB.
