Today, October 4, 1957 the greatest age in the history of Man arrived. Greater then the Bronze Age or Iron Age that preceded it the Space Age began with the launching of Sputnik, the first man-made satellite, into orbit.
 
Yeah I was hopin' to have lightsabers and flyin' cars by now!
 
Is this thread is irrefutable proof we now live in the Ironic Age ???
 
If you can remember Sputnik, you're living
in the Iron Tonic Age.

Chemyst :cool:
 
And now Russia is still ahead. Our space shuttle is being moth balled, We can only service the ISS with Russian capsules/rockets.

Russia is now building a space hotel that their space station components will also fit. Some foresee Russia yanking their pods from the ISS and we no longer having a way to service the ISS.
 
Well, in a land as inhospitable as Russia; who could blame them for wanting to live in the comparitvely luxurious surrounds of space?
