520 Greg Klerlx argues that ever since the last human left the
moon in 1972, the Space Age has been stuck in the wrong
orbit, and NASA, the organization that once fueled the
world's space-faring hopes, has been largely responsible
for keeping it there. With the loss of the space shuttle
Columbia, there has never been a more critical time for
anyone interested in the future of space exploration to
ask two questions: whatever happened to the Space Age? And
how do we get it back?
