but this -- i do believe the moon landings are fake, i don't think we can even get to the moon. nasa even admitted we can't get past the van allen belt. so i'm 100% the moon landings were fake. at least the first one. you think, again, this is not meant for probably a deep dive. you would like to know -- the van alan belt means you can't leave the atmosphere. so we faked the first one. but then maybe not the other ones? so, again, you have this why -- so then you have other nauzs argue back and forth, you need to get out of here. you have these conspiracy movements. the question about the internet, they bloom. they grow. they move, they separate out and then they go and they fester and they grow and grow again. again, i don't mean to use fester overly pejoratively. some of these people are concerned about their kid got autism and they're concerned about vaccines. that is not the place for necessary nations. but the difficulty of debate is when you have a student or a person on your delta flight that you're having this conversation with, it's hard when the two sides regard each o

because, the nuclear thermal propulsion you're talking about is the moon to mars program.o mars in the decade of the 30's. we have to develop this propulsion technology as well as nuclear fission technology, once we are on the surface of mars to generate the power we need there. there is a suggestion that has already been given to the congress of -- since we have been solicited about what we should do in the jobs bill, for $585 million that would not only have extraordinary r&d benefits, but, ultimately, produce the development of new technology, new things that produce new jobs . >> great. as you know, langley research center in virginia is the home of some of nasa's most important aeronautics r&d programs that have been developing and testing innovative new aircraft structures, advanced composites, and propulsion technologies. last year congress included direction in both the house and senate. nasa authorization bills, as well as in the fy 21 omnibus to move forward on a new national subsonic explain flight instructor to demonstrate the technologies developed by langley

, while nasa plans the land, the 1st woman and the next man on the moon by 2024. what's the significance of returning to the lunar surface? well basically, you know, there's, it's like an island. ah, sure it's, you know, it's, it's close enough where we can get back and forth fairly quickly. you know, couple days, 3 days but it also allows us to sort of learn how to operate on a world. so, you know, it's a big the radio show you've got back, you know, the nasty dirt if you can handle that and learn how to operate. there then you can pretty well go anywhere. did we do a disservice by kind of, i don't want to say abandoning the space program because we certainly didn't do that. but you know, it's been nearly what 50 years since the last time anyone landed on the moon. so was that a disservice to the ambitions when we talk about moving towards mars and something like that, by stopping those missions? i actually do think it was a service i'm, i'm part of the generation that you know, you can either call us apollo children or a orphans of apollo, which is a nice not co
