Doc X Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Not to downplay Shatner's trip in anyway, but isn't it kind of sad to think that the best the only country to ever put men on the moon way back in 1969 can do by 2021 is pop them up just high enough to "qualify" for the title astronaut? I miss having a real space program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think seven or eight of the twelve X15 pilots broke this barrier and were authorized to wear some sort of astronaut patch or decoration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I miss having a real space program. I hardly consider the Juno and Cassini missions to be less than real space programs. Until we have something significant for humans to do in outer space there's no reason to send them back out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sixgun Sheridan Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 I think I'd rather go up in Branson's plane. The idea of being shot into space riding a huge dildo isn't something I'd want to have to explain to St. Peter if something went wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
