Not, what actually happens is this

>Be majority white nation with Nazi Rocket scientists and one of the strongest industrial bases in the world

>Competing with communists in a contest of space one-upmanship

>Commies have launched a probe that has landed on the moon

> Oh crap, we must compeeeeete

>Build manned rocket to land on the moon, televise the event to billions

> Commies mad, they send literal feds to subvert nation

> Commies overrun colleges and higher education, all the Nazis die off

> (((Civil Rights))) movements convinces normies that being a white nation is a bad thing, cities integrated and industrial base collapses or is outsourced

> USSR collapses, meaning most normies think communism is dead, even as it runs through all the institution and the government

> Space shuttle program has a variety of high profile failures, normies simply dont care about space anymore to begin with because sportsball is more interesting than an endless void of nothingness

> Obama, a communist plant and racial agitator, is "elected" president of the USA by pearl clutching boomers and goyest generation who want "muh first black man in the white house", immediately begins tearing down the last remains of white america in the government

> NASA completely subverted, ground zero for DEI retardation: "We must have all black rocket scientists"

> More budget is allocated for roastie space walks and lesbian space crime studies than it is for actual research

> Literally produces nothing of value for 20 years

Just to add to what you said, if you ask 100 people who was president during the Apollo landings, 100 of them will say JFK. But the truth is, Nixon was president - **and** he was the most popular president in history, so he had the political power to cancel Apollo if he’d wanted to.

But he supported it, and so did Johnson. And neither of them get any credit for it. Believe me, that lesson was learned well. Since then, every president has canceled the last guy’s space program.

The only reason we got the space shuttle is that the Air Force thought it’d have military value (hence the shuttle launch complex at vandanburg).

Nova (a larger Saturn v) cancelled. Venturestar/X-33, cancelled. Constellation, cancelled. Ares, cancelled. Artemis, cancelled. Ares, cancelled. And probably a bunch more that I’ve forgotten.

And now the rot of DEI has set in so they wouldn’t be able to build one even if it didn’t get canceled.
