This wasn't just about space exploration but reflected a larger basic lack of investment in science education. In fact the one positive thing about the Soviets beating us is that the investment in science education is helping us decades later. However I fear that America will slip back into complacency again as we watch China and then India return to the moon. If you're a fan of NASA (doesn't matter if you're a Dem, Rep. or indie) I beg you to email your congressperson and the White House to support NASA.

- WriterSD, on 11/05/2009, -0/+11Very good suggestion about emailing our congressmen! I would love to see the US send a man to Mars in the near future. And learn more about Titan. :)
- jjohnstn, on 11/06/2009, -0/+6Recommended reading for anyone interested in the space program: the autobiography "Flight" by Chris Kraft (former Mercury/Gemini flight director) is an insightful look into the early days of the space program, up through Apollo. Lots of background information on why certain decisions were made and details NASA would never have wanted made public during the space race.
