I'm glad to see Mission Control get some love! I still think developing that system is one of the greatest feats of thinking. Spacecraft designers got specs, Mission Control got everything else.
While I am too young to be around for actual moon landing I do recall flying model rockets for it's twentyth anniversary. Ever since then I have been captivated with the idea of people coming together to accomplish the impossible,
no matter the difficulties. I am disappointed, that in this day and age, society frequently comes together to feel and to object, but rarely to do and improve.
I guess that is where FIRST fits into the picture. Go Flight!
