Today we have a President, a large majority of Congress, an academic elite, and media that doesn’t believe in American exceptionalism. As a result we have no manned space program.
True that. It is sadly sobering to think that over 50 years ago we sent Alan Shepard aloft on the first Mercury flight, a 15 minute suborbital hop. Today we have no capability of sending a single astronaut on a suborbital trip.
