When, JFK announced the program to send a man to the moon and return him safely in 10 years, it happened. Not long ago NASA was asked how long it would take to return to the moon. The reply was 20 years. Makes you wonder what's happened to NASA. Well no not really. If we gave the current space budget to Burt Rutan. We'd probably have space colonies with scheduled commercial flights in 10 years.
