    ArmoredPanther, it is possible to use in 2017, after Launch Complex 39A is modified, to use a Saturn V, the Ares V is bigger than the Saturn V.

    The US govt. said "All rightey, done with that!" and took away all NASA's funding (there was supposed to be Apollo 18,19 and 20) and put it into a little country called Vietnam. Same thing is happening today with Iraq. Now pass me a milkshake, please

  • Despite a ...

    Despite a widespread belief to the contrary, the Saturn V blueprints have not been lost. They are kept at Marshall Space Flight Center on microfilm.

    The problem in re-creating the Saturn V is not finding the drawings, it is finding vendors who can supply mid-1960's vintage hardware (like guidance system components), and the fact that the launch pads and VAB have been converted to Space Shuttle use, so you have no place to launch from.

    My guess is because they got to the moon, and once they did that, they were like "Woo hoo, mission accomplished, lets all go out for some frosty chocolate milkshakes."

    PLEASE DON'T READ THIS!!!!! in 1964 13 year old Elisa Johnson was raped and murdered in North Carolina, her body was found with multiple stab wounds, and now that you've read this, every night she will come to your house and hang from your closet with glowing red eyes, the only way to stop this is to post this to 10 other videos

  • BubbaUK, the answer ...

    BubbaUK, the answer is easy. We have to spend more and more money on social programs like welfare and all the other bullshit programs that keep people dependent on a bloated govt. It's very sad because back then the computers they used to control the spacecraft can now be found sitting on your desk. Computing power I mean, so just think how far modern technology would take us.

  • It never impresses ...

    It never impresses me what they say in programs. I'd rather see an objective test. Sure formula 1 drivers and pilots have certain skills, but usually it's because of 2000+ hours of experience rather than genetic talent. Astronauts used to be recruited from a pool of test pilots because they were used to fly new stuff, that's your best approach for a qualified employee to fly a metal cigar.

    As I understand it, von Braun had the aim set on the Moon all along, even when he had to design rockets for the Nazis.
