I'm not sure what angle they'd play with advertising, but I think "build a fighter plane!" sounds a lot more exciting to a kid than "improve the fuel efficiency

- baltcode 15y agoI agree. Though something like "build a personal rocket ship", like SpaceX or the lot doesn't sound too bad either. I am just disappointed that the civilian/exploration side of NASA isn't the big dream anymore.
- Groxx 15y ago40 year old tech (even if it isn't, it is from the outside) probably doesn't help. NASA used to be a driving force behind more-visible tech, now they just appear to be failing to keep up. It has lost some pizazz since the Cold War.
