NASA spanks $34bn on a disposable rocket – likely to top $50bn by 2024 moon landing

Speaking only as someone who has absorbed Apollo 12 through historical and cultural recollections, it’s always struck me as a really bizarre mission, just in terms of its attitude. If 11 was the serious, solemn mission filled with the weight of the knowledge of its own importance, 12 was the kid brother who spends wedding ceremonies running around the church on a broomstick horse shouting “YEEEE-HAW!” at the top of its lungs.
