Space Travel

I am still astounded on how humans have managed to beat all odds, build a machine that can travel to another celestial body, and come back, while preserving the humans inside. And all of this happened 60 years ago. It still boggles my mind. Due to immense amount of time I spent playing a space simulator, I now understand how this works, but I still can’t see how humans did this before they even invented CD’s. The computer onboard the spacecraft had the around the same computing power as a handheld calculator today. But humans still pushed through the technological barrier and reached for the stars, and they managed to do it, which is really inspiring.

  1. Hahaha that is very funny, and true — how did we send humans into space in a giant tin can, before we even had CDs? 🙂

    I also find it fascinating that we can send giant heavy objects up into the air – even an airplane still boggles my mind, although I know how it works it still seems impossible.
