In a recent speech President Obama put forth our nations plans for future space exploration. Canceling the recent plans by the Bush administration to go back to the moon. We at the crazy couldn't agree more. Although the manned moon missions were wonderfully successful. Both in achieving the goals set down and in developing new technologies for humankind. (Womankind? Mankind? Don't want to offend anyone here.) (By the way, if you are one of those people who believe we never went to the moon, we have to ask how can you possibly be reading this post as obviously you are an ignoramus?) (Ok, there are some people we don't mind offending.) So kudos to President Obama and N.A.S.A. for putting us on the path to deep space exploration. We now have a reason to develop faster spacecraft, more advanced oxygen generation, and communication technologies. If we are ever to leave this planet and explore beyond our solar system this is the first step. (Actually the moon landing was the first step, a small staggery stumble of a first step, but a first step just the same.) We at the crazy find it amazing how many people think that space program is a waste of money all the while benefiting from the advances in Avionics, Telecommunications, Computers and Engineering that the moon missions provided.
So here we are on the edge of mans next step into space, let's make it a big one. Just our opinion, ciao for now.
