So on the 50th anniversary of one of America’s greatest achievements, the Vice President, not the President, will be making remarks.
I guess he couldn’t find a tee time that would’ve allowed for him to speak.
That actually might not be a bad thing. I once visited the Vasa museum in Stockholm (a seventeenth century ship which managed all of 1,300 m into its maiden voyage, before capsizing and sinking, raised and restored in the 1960s.) My friend and I came the the section discussing why it sank, looked at each other, and one of us said, “Oh god, they let the managers get their hands on the blueprints.” Specifically, the King decided the ship would look more impressive if the forecastle were significantly taller than originally planned. I think, when it comes to the engineering choices and mission design, personal attention from Mr. Trump might be something we can do without.
Yes. I wish Trump would forget about NASA and go pick on some other agency.
