    No news is good news (re: It's awfully quiet in here) —Aaron Sneary
   Perhaps it's good there's not much said, as a current search on space news over at cnn.com found nothing but bad news. NASA safety panel resignings, China going to space, a satallite declared a total loss. sigh The stars are aligned against us (...) (21 years ago, 26-Sep-03, to lugnet.space)

     Silence is good. Be wery wery quiet. I am working on something! I'm not saying it is part of a faction, or if it's military, but I'm working on something!!! :) Rick Bluetooth (Ask Tim Courtney...) (21 years ago, 26-Sep-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

     (...) I'm with Paul to the core on this one. China going into space (or ANY humans going) is a beautiful beautiful thing. j o n (21 years ago, 26-Sep-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

      (...) Indeed. Unfortunately, they have one thing we don't have--the ability to exert singularity of purpose in spite of prevailing public opinion. That's often pretty reprehensible, but it does allow the state to marshal resources and shrug off (...) (21 years ago, 27-Sep-03, to lugnet.space)

     (...) Stars don't align against us. They point the way. .Spacers don't crawl into moonbases to hide. We build them. We don't let zeniths pass. We boldly go. This news holds possibilities for a gathering of humankind. There are admittedly negative (...) (21 years ago, 27-Sep-03, to lugnet.space)

We ALWAYS need a common enemy or 'strategic competitor', otherwise groups always (...) (21 years ago, 27-Sep-03, to lugnet.space)
   
        Re: No news is good news (re: It's awfully quiet in here) —Aaron Sneary
   (...) Ah, now this is the best argument I've heard in response to my comment. Anyone going to space is ok. But I think it' sad that the USA is letting time and opportunity pass us by. That a 'competitor' could respark a space race, a public interest (...) (21 years ago, 27-Sep-03, to lugnet.space)

   (...) Americans may have supported it, but it was the political climate of the time that paid for it. It was a race to beat the Russions, not as much a race to get to the moon. Kennedy wasn't initially a huge fan of the space program(1), but when it (...) (21 years ago, 27-Sep-03, to lugnet.space)
