As I prepared this post, I had to remind myself of the world at that time, so different even tho just 50 years ago. <br /><br />I do think that going to the moon was worthwhile, even tho our (USA) motives were not completely pure. Thinking on this is only put in more relief by the current discussions concerning NASA and its mission and missions.<br /><br />the ObserverThe Observerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17696168395133075354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4773175694027086382.post-24646189551083416042010-04-16T10:51:57.336-05:002010-04-16T10:51:57.336-05:00Wow, two typos.

It was a fake space capsule in a fake sky, and my Dad made we watch it in the name of 'history'. <br /><br />Now, of course, simulations are far more worth watching (Industrial Light and Magic!)but at the time, ew.<br /><br />I also love old magazines, especially when they teach you the history of thought--how nuts we were back then, how nuts we must be now.<br /><br />Ann T.Ann T.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11128699035211561119noreply@blogger.com
