In 1934 Yuri Gagarin was born.35 years later,in 1969, Apollo-11 lands on the Moon. In year 2004,35 years after Apollo-11 it looks like we still will not have a new manned lunar landing programme underway. Plenty of ideas,plenty of paper studies,plenty of talk but no hardware underway for such a programme. The next Moon may not be a 'blue moon' but a 'red moon' ? But that may be 35 years away ! let's hope not. Just a thought. |

Well I guess we'll have an International Manned mission to Mars within the next 35 years ... |

Not to forget that next month is 35 yrs since Apollo 8 - IMHO the "getting" to the moon for the first time was as significant as landing there. Roll on the Ap8 reunion (if only!)Paul | |
