We could have Lunar colonies right now. We had the ability. We had the vision. And unfortunately we had Vietnam. Some have said the Lunar missions would have ended ahead of schedule even without Vietnam, but I dont think so. Vietnam had cost the US enormous blood and treasure and maybe Nixon would not have been elected without the war. Some may disagree with me, but Ive always thought the Vietnam war was a turning point in in modern American history, with its effects still shaping American policy and culture. We could be on the Moon right now and probably on to Mars. We could have ushered in a new era of human advancement. But we did not. We failed.
