Yes, the Falconheavy will be a significant step towards getting back to the 1970s.

Thank God for generation X. 40 years of boomers pissing away the space program.

The Greatest generation ended the Apollo lunar missions.

The boomers engineered, developed and launched Mars rovers like this, nearly as big as a car, which will be roving around the surface of Mars in a couple of months.

Taken during mobility testing, this image is of the Mars Science Laboratory rover Curiosity, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif.
