I wouldn't be too hard on NASA. It is difficult to compare technology
accomplishements of different ages. 20 years ago may not seem that
long ago, but think what can be done now making use of GPS satellites
that weren't available then (to consider just one such technology). 20
years ago would have been the Before-GPS-Age.
