Ugh! First “gay” marriage, now “ferry astronauts”. When will ever end?

[NormsRevenge]

I hear they are giving up on the burnt t’ar engine’

Good luck, we need to go back into space

[Captain7seas]

no need for this. We can rely on our Russian friends to send our astronauts up and we only have to pay them $71 million a pop. -no brainer.

I believe Elon Musk, Obama donor extraordinaire, is the reason NASA has been turned into a shell of it’s former self. Nice to have friends in high places who will grease the skids for you!

All of the new space entrepreneurs are standing on the shoulders of giants. Here are the two biggest giants. Werner Von Braun and Sergei Korolev

Both of these men were scientific titans. I admire Sergei Korolev the most as his legacy is not stained by the blood of Jewish prisoners forced to labor to build rockets to kill innocents.

I cannot think of Von Braun without seeing the image of those poor tortured prisoners. "I was just following orders" and "I was only interested in the peaceful use of space technology" are not good excuses. I know God can forgive someone like Von Braun but I have a hard time absolving such sins.

May both of them rest in peace...too bad they did not live to see the fruits of what they did.

Both men felt that we could be on Mars before the 20th century ended.

I predict that SpaceX will be first to land a man on Mars.
