And written in a most entertaining fashion! :^)
Have you read Gordon Cooper's "Leap of Faith"?
Very enlightening. Worth it alone for his scathing and right indictment of U.S. Senator Wm. Proxmire, a Wisconsin Democrat and member of the Budget & Space Committee, who used his influence to de-fund the Saturn rocket program and its Mars mission. Proxmire was so vindictive that he had all of the machinery and tooling for these incredible machines and rocketry, destroyed, perfectly good stuff, so the program couldn't be revived. Cooper really comes down on him and the whole liberal administration that let America's lead in space tech be wantonly trashed.
Cooper's take on UFOs is also interesting.
If only Proxmire could have gotten to see the exhaust of a Saturn 5 close up, he might have had a little respect for it, if only a couple of seconds.
People like him would have the rest of us living in mud huts and applying for permits to have fires.
[ Cooper’s take on UFOs is also interesting. ]
My take is that there is weird stuff in the sky we can;t explain yet if ever and the government is denying that they cannot do anything about it.
As for the stuff in the sky actually being aliens or whatnot, I will be skeptical until ET gives me a ride in a saucer :)
