apollo

Sort of like Apollo-1 crew forced making Apollo much more fire resistant.

If a blockchain technology is really as exciting as Apollo 11, then that must reflect poorly on us.

And they had rescued the Apollo 13 halfway to the moon when part of the vehicle blew up.

What about the claim about the actual cause of the Apollo 11 program alarms?

Of course I hope I am wrong and we have built most of the basics in Apollo and since.

I use Apollo + most of my music library on my 64GB sd card in my s4.

The Apollo program probably looked cheap and easy when JFK promised it.

I think Ethereum (or something like it) will have a greater effect on many more lives than the Apollo missions did.

Even Apollo had it as a critical part of the mission.

The parent post of 500bn looks more reasonable against the Apollo cost of 170bn, but current Federal budget is 3.9 Trillion, 4.4% of which is 170bn.

I know the Apollo team was quarantined when they got back from the moon.

Gene Kranz, in his book Failure Is Not An Option, describes one of the simulator runs for Apollo 11 in which the Simsup (simulation supervisor) threw a 1201 alarm at the Mission Control team.

I only doubted the possibility that this will have an immediate (read: "explosive") impact on par with the Apollo landings.

Feels like a "Live at the Apollo for Computer Scientists"

In particular, Raymond Malewitz has a book of examples of "creative misuse" in recent American lit.[1] Some of his examples (Fight Club, No Country for Old Men) are noted for their anti-capitalist or anti-consumerist slant, while others (Apollo 13, McGuyver) have more of a quasi-military aspect to them.

I don't think we would have a major problem attracting Apollo-level candidates even if the chance of success was less than 50%.

We can do manned spaceflight cost effectively (orders of magnitude better than the Shuttle, ISS, or Apollo), and as our technology improves our capabilities will only increase while costs fall.

I will still say that the last closest thing humanity tried to Mars landing was Apollo, and 4.4% of federal budget per annum is a good proxy for the cost of a Mars landing.
