Last Monday, July 22, was the 44th anniversary of America's Apollo 11
mission's historic landing on the Moon.
Here's dashcam footage from the lunar rover.
I don't know why Bloomberg reporter Adam Johnson keeps referring to Apollo
16, instead of Apollo 11. Apollo 16
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_16>was the 10th manned mission in
the U. S. Apollo space program; the 5th and
penultimate to land on the Moon; and the first to land in the lunar
highlands.
Wiki says <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_11> Apollo 11's Lunar
Module<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_Lunar_Module>LM-5 weighed
33,278 lb.
How sad that Obama the POS has drastically cut the budget of NASA.
>From Wiki<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NASA#Budget>
:
*NASA's budget has generally been approximately 1% of the federal budget
from the early 1970s on, but briefly peaked to approximately 3.3% in 1966
during the Apollo program. Recent public perception of the NASA budget has
been shown to be significantly different from reality; a 1997 poll
indicated that Americans responded on average that 20% of the federal
budget went to NASA.*
* The percentage of federal budget that NASA has been allocated has been
steadily dropping since the Apollo program and as of 2012 the NASA budget
is estimated to be 0.48% of the federal budget. In a March 2012 meeting of
the United States Senate Science
Committee<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Senate_Committee_on_Commerce,_Science_and_Transportation>,
Neil deGrasse Tyson
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_deGrasse_Tyson>testified that
"Right now, NASA’s annual budget is half a penny on your tax
dollar. For twice that—a penny on a dollar—we can transform the country
from a sullen, dispirited nation, weary of economic struggle, to one where
it has reclaimed its 20th century birthright to dream of
tomorrow."Inspired by Tyson's advocacy and remarks, the
Penny4NASA <http://www.penny4nasa.org> nonprofit was founded in 2012 by
John Zeller and advocates the doubling of NASA's budget to one percent of
the Federal Budget, or one "penny on the dollar."*
Less money for NASA, whose missions direct our eyes to the heavens, but
more money for even more people on food stamps.
Way to go, Obama. You're well on your destructive path to turn this
once-great country into a Third World dump.
