Are you joking? This comment is literally unbelievable .
It continued to progress in low Earth orbit. There's nothing special about going anywhere in space. It's not like our technology reverted or anything, it just started developing in low earth orbit because once we've been to the moon and defeated the Russians have gotten all the propaganda wins, what's the real economic basis to go to the moon? Instead, people on earth were fiddling with their antennas on their vacuum tube TV sets and getting bored with it. The next phase of the space program was communications satellites and reconnaissance and weather satellites and all kinds of improvements on Earth that made a difference to people here. There's no reason to go to the moon now except now they've discovered helium 3 which is a really brilliant fuel for fusion reactors and now there is a space race on for America and China defined the best deposits on the moon
