60 years and we’re back to a cramped little capsule stuck on top of a rocket.

Exactly. I watched those 1960s space launches as a boy and figured by now, space travel would be a routine event and even tourists would be going to the moon for lunch, a corned beef sandwich while watching the Earth spin around, then be back on Earth for dinner.

When the launch last week was scrubbed for clouds, well that reminded me of back in the 1960s.

Heck, I thought we’d be zipping around from home to work in Jetsons-like flying vehicles.
