If you haven’t seen FOR ALL MANKIND, do yourself a favor.

Every time I have to fiddle with the carbs on my truck or motorcycle, I think how crazy it is that we went to the moon using technology from the ‘60s.

If anyone is ever in Houston, Huntsville, or Cape Canaveral, you need to go see their Apollo exhibits. TV and the internet are one thing, but when you can see everything in full scale at the same time, it’s much clearer. This was (and still is) one of the biggest and fastest technology leaps in the history of mankind and always will be.

My father-in-law did an internship that involved him working on the Apollo project. I really want to learn more about it. Unfortunately, his other son-in-law is one of those weirdos that claims the moon landing was faked; so he doesn’t really talk about it.
