Space/Science » in reply to Crossing the ocean didn't used to be that easy, either.

re: Spaceflights

Spaceflights are much more complicated than airplane flights!
We were far too much under the influence of SF authors who made them look easy.
Also, I'm very much convinced that claiming the "ISS goes round in circles" isn't productive and reveals more an interest for spectacular shows than for advancement in the exploration of space.
That feeling will hit the Moon and also Mars, sooner or later.
After Apollo 17, we all agreed it was time to concentrate on LEO.
It all reminds us of the role of humans in space, of course.
I have the DVD "Earthlight" and it's absolutely beautiful!! We haven't finished appreciating what Earth orbit can offer.
