We do have a frontier, but for some reason we completely lost interest in it 45 years ago.

The only frontier now is all digital.

"We do have a frontier, but for some reason we completely lost interest in it 45 years ago."

The "some reason" was because the left figured out about that time that as long as America had a "frontier" that it would always be unassailable in leadership of the world, and started a propaganda campaign to destroy the space program...and almost succeeded. Fortunately, private parties (SpaceX and others) have resurrected it, and in process are forcing NASA to live up to some of their original mission. Will it be enough.............???

Not all of us did. The Left convinced the Elite that we must turn inward.
