Thank you, Anita! “The space race is now under the control of wealthy billionaires, bent on redefining the space program in their image. Perhaps this a sign of a crumbling US-funded space program, or perhaps capitalism on rocket fuel.” —Anita Sengupta, writing in After Shock

Thank you, Lisa! "To think of life 50 years ago is to conjure a time when, on the whole, the pace was slower, life was simpler. . . . a day-to-day without much technology, connectivity, or pressure." I do remember!
