Why design something you know nothing about how to make it work?

In order to put a man on the moon, we had to invent the technology to invent the technology that made it possible to put a man on the moon.

That started with a single pronouncement by JFK that by the end of the 1960's, America would have a man on the moon.

First step to any technological breakthrough is to have a vision.

I think the German V2 rockets were not all that far away from designing a rocket capable of going to the moon.

To me the most amazing thing about the moon landing was that we could watch it happening on TV.
