We are in China right now, and I have been really surprised at the complete obliviousness of everyone to the launch. We expected a certain amount of pride and national attention, perhaps even a bit of celebration, but it has been a complete non-starter. It was difficult to find coverage on any of the Chinese news channels. On the light side, we were wandering the streets in Xian and came across a couple of sidewalk astronomers. However, they wanted 10 yuan, (1.60) to look through the scope, and it was just a blurry blob.... Pictures may follow in a few weeks... Jo Quoting Joe Bauman <josephmbauman@yahoo.com>:

I can't help but wonder if this is how many Brits must have felt as their domain over the oceans slowly eroded away. In the end not a bad thing but it is hard to let go. patrick p.s http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cWz9MrHskk :) On 17 Jun 2012, at 18:35 , Chuck Hards wrote:

I've said many times that this country is the British Empire of the 21st century. We have only our divisive behavior to blame. The sun shall rise again. If we can but lay aside blame and work together toward a common goal once again. If not, then our opinion of ourselves was wrong and we deserve our fate. Evolution.

Been there done that comes into mind.
The pause in manned US flight was planned long ago (before Obama), hardly the demise. I have yet to hear anyone explain how we can develop a moon base without a food and water supply. NASA still says they cannot launch enough food and water for the survival of astronauts to mars or sustain a moon base. The Constellation project was a mistake, sustaining ISS should have been the focus. We are a long way from the technology to put a man on Mars or sustaining a moon base. I've said many times that this country is the British Empire of the 21st
century.
