<p>People could learn a lot about going to the moon in the 1960’s. Only 20 days after our first American in space, President Kennedy challenged America to put a human on the moon before the end of the decade. Within 8 years, we had gone from being confined to our planet to walking on another.</p>
<p>…and to Kennedy it wasn’t about technological superiority. Prior to his assassination, he was discussing a joint moon effort with the USSR, which was not resumed after his death. It was about the human challenge to him. We managed to meet that “impossible” challenge.</p>
