Hi,
just rediscovered in my shed a Majorette toy from the 80's? It did come on a fairly basic low-loader. I think I purchased 2 of them at the time at pocket money price in a general store. Only a couple of inches long. Pop out wings presumably so the transport vehicle it was on could drive...

Hello everyone! This is my first post here. For months I have been fascinated by the fictional "F-117X Remora" from the film Executive Decision. In the movie's lore, the Remora was originally created by ARPA (Now DARPA) for the space program, to conduct supersonic low-orbit link ups with the...

As the US looks to go back to the Moon with Artemis my question here is, what might have been feasible in the 1970s to keep the US sending manned expeditions to the Moon?
