I remember when we moved the orbit of "space station freedom" to bring the Russians in, I remember when we seemed to want to explore space, "for all mankind.", and boldly go (with an international crew), where no man (or woman), had gone before. It also seems like a pretty accurate assessment. With the present day USA lock on rapid launch and reuse by spacex, and thousands of LEO sats providing communications across the globe, out of the darkness, the USA has achieved an enormous lead in near-space dominance that looks to only grow wider in the next decade. I pray we use it wisely. --=20 Podcast: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7058793910227= 111937/ Dave T=C3=A4ht CSO, LibreQos
