No Bush-Bashing
Incredible that someone reviewing this DVD would trash-talk it because it involves George W. Bush. He was the president who wanted to take us back to the Moon and then beyond. How different from the current administration which cancelled the Constellation program--thereby flushing 9 billion dollars down the toilet--and putting many skilled engineers out of work. Oh yeah--and then he cut back NASA's budget to destroy plans for additional unmanned Mars missions. Makes Bush look pretty good, I'd say.Oh yeah--and the current occupant of the White House also wants to send people to an asteroid in 2025--if only he can figure out a way to get them there and what the heck they will do when they get there.Great DVD that shows what might have been, without people with the brains of a Twinkie running the space program.
