what do you guys think the relationship between NASA and the US military is
Its so fucking funny when usamericans criticize the Soviet space program for being “too connected with the military” as if NASA didn’t have 16 arms in every single MIC corporation and the military like the whole reason the space shuttle BECAME that big was because the military REALLY wanted something that could capture and deploy satellites.
for some extra laughs, because the usa was absolutely MALDING after Yuri Gagarin became the first man in space, guess what fucking motto they used for their guy.
the first free man in space
oh look who it is on the bottom of this propaganda poster!
