Remember when the United States had launch capability?
That was cool.

The Space Race with the Russians was the background of my childhood. I think we watched Sputnik flying over from my grandparents back yard. America’s rockets were exploding on the pad and my Daddy opined, “Russia is going to whip us.”

We launched a Delta from California yesterday, supposedly our largest rocket ever. We just can't launch people into space.
