that is saddening. However we are making weapons that seem like something out of Star Wars.and I have read NASA is working on a propulsion system that can make ships go half a billion miles an hour. I always have hope for this great country. I still think there is more than 50% that are like us. Or perhaps I am a dreamer
I’ve been dreaming for the past 40 years or since the last man left the moon.
“NASA is working on a propulsion system” but I don’t put put too much stock in it at this point (see link below). When NASA goes back to full on nuclear propulsion (like the NERVA nuclear engine) then you know they are serious.
Meanwhile, NASA is somthing of an inside joke, other than it’s robotic missions.
