Reply to comment by PurpleSailor in NASA's Artemis moon program receives salute from Apollo 11's Buzz Aldrin (video) by kevindavis338

The Apollo program got cut short out of SPITE. Richard Nixon absolutely hated John F. Kennedy with every fiber of his being and canceling Apollo was about taking the one single shot he could take at a dead man's legacy as soon as the situation allowed.

Tricky Dicky despised his political opposition and ran a smear campaign out of the Whitehouse involving other government agencies. I was a kid but I still love the fact that he had to resign, it was great to watch on TV!
