But couldn’t NASA have figured a way to make the first picture NOT look like it was on a 12” B&W Philco in 1957?

There would be regular scheduled Trailways buses running every day from cities around the globe.

And pollution, greed, traffic, brothels, Walmarts, panhandlers..........and Republicans.
