yaaaaaaaaawn! So what? I know the space race got us Tang, Velcro and duct tape but apart from giving geniuses something to do what good is all this space stuff? We have plenty of issues to deal with, right here on the only rock that is any good to us.

Tang was a commercial product invented before the Sputnik, in 1957.
It wasn’t very successful until it was included on the ‘menu’ for astronauts to drink, and then became a household word, cause ever kid wanted to “Drink what the astronauts drink!”.........................me as well, born in 1955 I was just the right age to become very space oriented as a kid.

There was a brouhaha over a pickle company calling their pickles “midget” pickles so I’m guessing the PC crowd will come yelling about the “dwarf” label on that planet.
