Politics and money - and stupid, short sighted people (see politicians)!

Many people don;t know that ALL the hardware for Apollo 18 and much of 19 were already built and ready to be used, when the politicians cut funding dead!
I can understand it if they'd called it quits after 19, but as so much had already been spent [rolleyes]

R&D can be VERY expensive, hence so many multi-national tie-ups!
