Man On The Moon

Man On The Moon

I don’t know what I think any more about man on the moon – just going to leave this all here. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Come to think of it, it is rather depressing (and even a bit strange) that no one has been able or willing to put a man on the moon in half century.

After 50 YEARS of technological development, no one has been willing or able to repeat this incredible feat.

It seems unfathomable, but the rest of the space industry has made space boring. The Russians, who dominate much of the business of sending things and people to space, do so with decades-old equipment. The cramped Soyuz capsule that takes people to the space station has mechanical knobs and computer screens that appear unchanged from its inaugural 1966 flight. Countries new to the space race have mimicked the antiquated Russian and American equipment with maddening accuracy. When young people get into the aerospace industry, they’re forced to either laugh or cry at the state of the machines. Nothing sucks the fun out of working on a spaceship like controlling it with mechanisms last seen in a 1960s laundromat.

-Ashley Vance, Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future (Amazon)
