Turning the clock back

I hoped mankind would come together for a world of tomorrow with dreams of reaching the stars. It failed, the failure is not with mankind but with the tyrants that follow mankind along on its venture seeking enlightenment. Those who believe they build a better wall, might in fact just do the opposite.
We all are humans, there is not anything complex with us, we are unique creature roaming the wast space on a little blue planet we call ;" Earth "

I myself hoped we would launch for space, but realize it will most likely not happen during my lifetime. The narrative of the story we live in, changed..
There wont be a spaceman for tomorrow, we failed, we all failed. Looking at the southern cross in the night sky i realize its time to turn the clock back to where it all went wrong.

As Lenny Kravitz once said "Baby, it ain't over til it's over".

I prefer to believe in that mantra, and not wallow about something that's too late to stop.

But I connected with what you have written.

To the moon? Again?

Nationalism is the opposite of what it takes for us to join the rest of the universe. As is any ideology based in fear.

Dont you think everyone just comes up with empty words at the end of the day,?

If i could turn back the clock, i would have totally avoided meeting my ex in every way possible. I probably would have met a Prince by now.

Every POTUS comes in, changes everything with NASA because its under the Executive Branch. NASA never knows what programs will be cut, expanded or created. It's always a mess. I'm amazed they get any programs done at all with their budgets constantly expanded, slashed, re-allocated ect.

NASA's manned stuff is just a front anyway, most of their real work is done in geosciences. The manned stuff is just a public distraction away form manned military projects.

What, you honestly think the military wouldn't have its own manned programs?
