JF:If you are going to bring up the Manhattan Project, then I think it ought to be compared with the German A-bomb project, which failed to produce a bomb. Why did it fail?<<
My point was more than science is scattershot and sometimes it's a matter of getting lucky. Why did the Germans prove better at 'rocket science'? Why did the Soviet Union after the war make better use of this science and technology than the Americans? It looks like the US has run out of happy accidents anyway, and when it can't borrow anymore money, it won't be able to buy them from other parts of the world.
