Blue Moon…
—NASA has unveiled plans to return a man to the moon by 2018; that’s sooo far away! The last lunar landing took place in 1972 (Apollo 17), long before many of you reading were a gleam in your father’s eye.
Things seemed to be moving ahead more quickly in the early days of the space program, when there was even optimistic talk of a mission to Mars by the the late 20th century.
The future’s just not getting here fast enough! And I want my flying car as seen in The Jetsons…they’re long overdue!

I’m sorry. I just can’t resist.
“Blue Moon! You saw me standing alone. Without a dream in my heart. Without a love of my o-o-own!
“Baw-baw-baw-baw! Ding-a-dong-ding!
BLUUUUUUUUUUUUUE moooooooooooooon!”
