This film was probably just a wee bit overly optimistic about the future of space flight and didn't fully take into account humanity's ability to regress.
Love the 60s optimism. Speeking of 60 its only taken 60+ years to make the inhabited Moon base idea from this even a possibility. Aster the 1st moon landings and the "end of the space race" nasa lost its blank check and had to massively scale back on expectations.
Ah the late 50’s .. where the optimism of the future was such that everyone was so looking forward to it. Flying Cars, The Video Phone .. travel, Luxury, Moon Colonies, and ventures into space. Then Tik Tok came along and amplified humanities ‘stupid’ gene to an entirely cancerous state. And now instead of having aerospace engineers and high functioning technical staff .. we have influencers .. and moron’s talking about how if you’re not a feminist you’re literally destroying the world. Gods how i miss the optimism, and intelligence of people in the past. I think if they knew how things turned out in 2020 and onwards .. they’d have thought twice about ‘progress’.
Fantastic. Some excellent footage, set to trippy ethereal 60s music.
Fantatic video. Love the wind tunnel model of Concorde, slowed down with far out '60s space music
I love the background music. Very appropriate.
Lmao
outstanding!!!
priceless footage of the vab and launch pad construction
oh man by 80s we will surely be vacationing on the moon
Oh yes, by then we will be a real space power, I´m sure!
