@bradleege The Luna 15 mission was actually widely known to the American public at the time. It was covered on TV and in the newspapers, mainly because of the fear it would somehow interfere with Apollo communications or operations. (The Soviets assured NASA otherwise.) It’s forgotten now. https://t.co/LLCQKXq0ZO — PolitiTweet.org

The demise of the Soviet manned lunar landing program in the 1960’s was mostly due to the repeated launch failures of its giant N1 rocket, which had 30 engines. It was the rough equivalent of the huge U.S. Saturn 5 rocket and was needed to carry the cosmonauts’ ship and lander. — PolitiTweet.org

@olsentropy Like I said, I admire his lede and have for years. But it occurs to me now, that "humans" would have been even better -- not for political correctness, but because it's more sweeping, just as accurate, and reads better (at least to me) from the vantage point of history. — PolitiTweet.org
