According to ‘2001 A Space Odyssey’ we had functioning bases on the moon 20 years ago and were up to sending a mission to Jupiter. It all seemed possible and even likely back in 1968. What happened?

Instead of spending that money on moon bases, we used it to pay people to vote Democrat.

NASA got rid of the Nazis, and the space program quickly spiraled.

Nixon happened. His watch canceled the remaining Apollo launches and NASA was left without any immediate goals.
