<< Why did Americans retreat from the moon after the Apollo program and turn away from more ambitious efforts to explore space? >> As a fumble mouthed teenager back in 1969 in the Phoenix College auditorium, I was going to as Clarke what was the major disappointment in the NASA space program. But I said "NASA space policy." "Well, that's the problem," he said before I could correct myself. "They have no policy. They can only do what's been funded by your Congress."
