The fact that it was celebrated on the 50th Anniversary of our moon landing just makes celebrating it more odious.


personally, IDC what and when they run, as I'm a fan of free enterprise and I think the market will bare. But it doesn't stop those from taking issue with the content and timing of the article. As I said I can only think of two reasons for doing it on such as day:

A. To applaud the diversity in the Russian Space Program
B. To throw shade at our accomplishment of the day of celebration

if you have a 3rd let me know or else select on of the 2 provided.

C. To expand on other issues involved in the space race...in one article.

But yes, SSF doesn't want the article ever published.  Good for him.  Not what/who I was responding to.
