I guess I’m a little older than you because I remember space launches from day one. The Mercury launches and on from there. I too was disappointed by watching NASA scale back time and time again.
Some of the greatest thrills of my life was meeting some of the original Mercury seven over the years.
I went to college in Melbourne, Fl. And recal all to well going up to the cape to watch some launches, great times. Haven’t seen a launch in person in many many years, my turn to sigh!!!
Anyway. Why not start off building just as the space program did. Start with the Mercury capsule, move into the Gemini, then Apollo and so on. Why not go crazy and throw a Sputnik innthere as well. Maybe not be part of the US space program, but pretty historic as well.

And side note.
I was wondering if anyone has seen my little red Tesla sports coupe. I was down at Cqpe Kennedy a week or so ago and parked it in the parking lot. When I came back it was gone. Can’t seem to locate it anywhere. Has anyone seen it??
