      @@ΚωνσταντῖνοςΚοντοθάνος hardly. The NASA team was composed of Americans, but also lots of German scientists from the former Nazi regime, with increasing amounts of foreign born scientists joining the team as time went on. The Soviet project was pretty similar in this regard.
      This isn't to mention all the different people involved in the manufacturing, resource collection, processing, and other industrial work who go uncredited to this achievement despite also being necessary to the projects success.
      While it took place within an arbitrary boundary, every little piece of assistance came from different corners of the globe.

      umm if NASA didn't get their funding slashed post Apollo we would already have bases on every planet, full blown cities on the moon and mars, only the entire solar system is not ambitious enough, if we want to guarantee our survival as a species then we would need to expand into multiple solar systems, eventually much of the milky way and even parts of andromeda and the other smaller galaxies in the local group.

      @@YoungAstronomicalReaserc-zf8zy It's a little more cynical than that, unfortunately. The Salyut stations were originally a military program; after it became clear that the Americans would beat the Soviets to the Moon, there was basically a crash program to turn Salyut into a civilian program and say "look at this! We weren't racing, this was our goal all the time! Silly Americans and their posturing."

      Yeah that part really chokes me up. She paid tribute not merely to the three that rode that rocket, to all the people whose 12 years of labor, sweat, toil, and love built the rockets. The capsules. The lander. The computers. It may have even been more than 10,000 if we include the entire supply chain from extraction to manufacture to assembly.
