Question

The first maned space mission was in 1961. Where do you think we will be in another 50 years?

Answer 1

I hope that we can at least have a manned space craft that is outside our solar system.... on the way to the nearest star...

Answer 2

I doubt there ever was,nor ever will be, a 'maned' space mission. Attaching a 'mane' to any sort of space mission would be tempting fate. The Heroic symbol of a 'mane' flowing in the wind as the launch vehicle punches swiftly upwards may be seductive and appeal to our deeply rooted mythic sensibility but would,alas,provide too much 'drag' and may even present a fire risk...hope this heps ya..

Answer 3

Well considering they thought we'd have people on Mars in 1990... I think NASA will be abandoned by then and we'll just have the super rich sending their own missions to the outer reaches of our solar system. Not as much fun but hey, that's that

Neil M - surely if the Apollo missions were faked with such ease the Russians would have tried to do the same, maybe even earlier or at least tried themselves to uncover and debunk the fake. It was all real, deal with it
