crookedspire Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 I will say this for May space is the limit cost no problem along with the train set dream I thought the country was broke every penny counted. But in the planned Queens Speech are plans for a space development an idea nicked off UKIP who wanted to mine space for a profit. Has May been watching too many Star Trek's it costs America millions of Dollars each year for its space programme which always comes under fire from the Republicans over the cost of it. Let's see if this happens perhaps we will see where no Tory has gone before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anna B Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Hard to imagine now, but after the war, Britain was the leading nation in the space race with much innovation, research and development going on, and with some of the best brains in the business. I wonder where it all went wrong...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
