I have seen several shows with James May discussing an American technological achievement; the man gets a lump in his throat. When he speaks of the Apollo Program, he borders on the emotional.

Just like many of us, he has memories of his parents letting him stay up at night to watch what was the ultimate pinnacle of human achievement. He also understands that we don't do more, largely for political reasons.
