Really sad...if you look at MSNBC's website there's a hyperlink entitled NASA's Glory Days 1960s and 70s.
Call me crazy but wasn't it the MSM that badmouthed space missions as wastes of tax dollars when the money could be better served bankrolling socialism?
Typical journalism: Lampoon and destroy anything virtuous then present several news reports on the glory days of said virtue. Isn't it a shame we aren't like we were in the good old days. Who killed that program: Nixon? Pathetic socialist retards!!!
And if anybody knew who he was at the time, Fritz Mondale.
The joke was that NASA screwed up big time with Proxmire by not finding a way to utilized milk or cheese to launch rockets.
The thing I remember about Mondale is a blurb in the paper about a reporter calling government information to get
his number after he was sworn in as VP. The operators had no idea who he was, so that became a story for the reporter.
