NASA's Bolden Speaks On Future Mars Mission, Chinese Moon Landing

Posted by samzenpus on from the lets-work-together dept.

MarkWhittington writes "During an interview with USA Today on the eve of the arrival of the Mars Rover Curiosity, NASA administrator Charles Bolden had some interesting thoughts on why a humans-to-Mars mission should be international and not American-led, how the world should react positively to the Chinese beating America back to the moon, and what he would do (or rather not do) if NASA were to have an 'unlimited' budget."

    Seriously ... who the F cares if you guys went to the moon 40 years ago??? you cant even go back anymore !! These guys will !! ... And thats what you should worry about !! Stop sitting on your ass America... this is exactly why other countries have stopped looking at you for inspiration... i admire the Chinese and sometimes i wonder if my country would be better off bordering them instead of the once Might US of A ...

    Sure you guys USED to be tough and strong... now you're just a bunch of fat-asses with useless trophy's on their shelves... i wouldnt be proud of that !
