President John Fitzgerald Kennedy gave a fiery speech to explore and conquer outer space. With that, he also made it a requirement to land on the moon by the end of the 1960's. When Apollo 11 landed on the moon, the world watched, differences put aside. During that spectacular moment the world became a single nation and watched the moon landing. In today's turbulent times, what we need once again is to make the world put religion aside, put political differences aside, and become a single nation once again. Jobs will be made, interest in engineering boosted! The benefits of a well-funded space program are limitless. Both long term and short term effects will be sure to be something that will go down in history, and make America a superpower in space once again.
