Today at exactly this time 50 years ago Neil Armstrong became the first human being to set foot on another celestial body other than Earth.To celebrate this historic moment and the late Neil Armstrong this post.And to the remaining crew members of Apollo 11 Buzz Aldrin and Michael Colins and all those people behind the scenes of the Apollo program happy 50th anniversary .
And these next questions;
- What did you think what went wrong with NASA after the Moon landings?
- Do you think that in the end the Space Shuttle was a costly (both in costs and lives) and impractical mistake that focused NASA's manned space program's attentions too much on near Earth missions?
- Which of the following nations/parties in the current "Space Race" is going to be the first to land man/women on the Moon?-
- China
- USA(/ESA)
- Russia
- Europe(ESA)
- India
- A commercial party such as Musk or Bezos

NASA became too bureaucratic and complacent. The "space race" was over, they had won and so the gov't couldn't seem to justify the budget for such a program especially when the TV ratings for each mission got smaller and smaller.
NASA gets the same budget now, where it makes exactly zero launches using zero vehicles, that it did when it had a program supporting 4 shuttles making numerous launches per year. Try to make sense of that.
It'll be SpaceX/Musk landing people on Mars. Guaranteed.
