Returning to the Moon, Mars, and Futuristic Movies  

Posted by Jeremy Tarbush

I wanted to refer my readers to another blog of failed predictions through movies.
The problem is the Challenger disaster and lack of government funding, I guess. While some of these are dystopian novels, and it's good that they didn't happen, the fact that they couldn't happen is still there. In '69, we went to the moon. It looked like we'd be on Mars in a matter of Years. Forty years later, we're still on Earth and have returned to the Moon since the end of the Apollo program. I don't understand why we don't use Apollo-like technology to return to the Moon. Instead we're using a more expensive new program for our grand return. I wonder if it will ever happen.
