I feel like we just decommissioned the shuttle with no lift vehicles, and only outsourcing on the horizon…

And then I’ve blinked and here we are again where NASA has a big ass rocket and is back to dominating space.

Maybe the politics and b*llsh** of the last ___ years has been getting to me more than I realized. I used to love space, and NASA, and the boundless optimism of the last frontier and its just been beaten out of me by adulthood, partisanship, and bitterness.

It’s so phenomenal to see NASA lighting off that big*as candle again
