Well, even considering

it seems that the payload saved
214
00:17:13,174 --> 00:17:15,773
by parking the primary vehicle
in orbit
215
00:17:15,775 --> 00:17:18,843

to the lunar surface
216

You've lately taken

a couple of swipes
at the space program.
1422
01:26:48,107 --> 01:26:50,874
I think it would be interesting
to, uh, talk more
1423
01:26:50,876 --> 01:26:52,342
about whether this
is the proper thing
1424

to do with public treasury.

01:26:54,079 --> 01:26:55,879

I would have,

function of its mission.

these daring three astronauts,

that, uh, all of the systems
work properly
1491

and that there should be
no reason why man cannot,
1492
01:29:52,059 --> 01:29:54,259
perhaps as early as July,
1493
01:29:54,261 --> 01:29:57,630

we've seen and heard today

make the great ocean voyages
of the earthbound

earthbound indeed.

the crew of Apollo 10

to winning an automobile

do you have about that
