Its a known fact that over forty years ago, man blasted of into space then landed on the moon. Back then the nation was inspired by our space hero's. Because of their bravery a generation of scientist and explorers were born.Students paid more attention to their teachers, because they too believed that man could go where no man could before. Even Hollywood was inspired by mans flight into space, so they created movies and television shows that capture the attention of a nation. Children, men and women worldwide dreamed of becoming astronauts, architects, designers, engineers, scientist and pilots. But something strange happened out of the blue, man stopped going to the moon. The moon project was shut down and in the process so was Americas desire to venture out into outer space. After 40 years one question still remains unanswered, Why haven't we been back to the moon?
What's funny to me is that man visited the moon over 40 years ago and some Scientist act like they don't have the technology to go back there. We have been there before, if anything we should be even more advance and better prepared than we were in the past. I feel that our government wasted a lot of tax- payers money by shutting down, the space shuttle, the moon project and others. One brave politician should come up with a bill and then put it up for vote to the American public. Explain to them why a space program is so vital to our interest and why we could be left behind, if we don't act now. We should build a reusable space ship that can take us further into space and beyond. Also by now a station on the moon should have been built. After all why visit a place if you can't at least establish a base there. Who knows what our world would be like now if man hadn't stop exploring the moon, space and beyond.
