More on Apollo

So tell me that is not an Apollo Capsule! When do they bring back Gemini now that we are going backwards. Oh and the comment I made about swapping out the avionics? Check out their web site. They say they will be doing that with this one.

Well what do ya think?

Apollo Redux

What is this spam in a can "advance" that Nasa is handing us? Have you seen their next generation space craft? It is just a four seater Apollo capsule! It looks exactly the same as the old Apollo and Comand Module set up!

If they were going to do that why did they even retire the Apollo to begin with? The could have just kept flying them and swaped out the avionics every now and then just like they do with 747's and B52's!

I am so disapointed by Nasa's lack of imagination! No wonder nobody is into the space program.

I do however have to give credit where credit is due. The NASA channel is excellent in it's coverage of Space Shuttle flights. Even when all they are showing is Mission Control. It brings me back to the days of wall to wall coverage of the Mercury and Gemini flights.
