Lunar Gateway
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lunar Gateway, officially named the Lunar Orbital Platform – Gateway (LOP-G), is a proposed space station in lunar orbit intended to serve as a solar-powered communications hub, science laboratory, short-term habitation module, and holding area for rovers and other robots.
While the project is led by NASA, the Gateway is meant to be developed, serviced, and utilized in collaboration with commercial and international partners. It will serve as the staging point for both robotic and crewed exploration of the lunar south pole, and is the proposed staging point for NASA's Deep Space Transport concept for transport to Mars.
Supportive reasoning
On December 10, 2018 NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine said at a presentation "There are people who say we need to get there, and we need to get there tomorrow,"

When Flanders Failed
(from internet transcript)
Ned Flanders: Friends, we love you all but I also have a sinister motive for asking you all here ''sinister'' being Latin for left-handed. But enough joking.
That was a joke?
Friday, I'm saying toodle-loo to the pharmaceutical game.
- What's he talking about? - Leaving?
No, I kid you not. Here's the noose I had to wear for ten years. What are you going to do? Like one out of every nine Americans I'm left-handed, and let me tell you it ain't all peaches and cream. Your writing gets smeared. Lord help you if you drive a standard transmission. I'm opening up a one-stop store for southpaws. Everything from left-handed apple peelers to left-handed scissors. Going to call it ''The Leftorium.'' So, Homer, I'm dying to know what do you think of
The Leftorium? It sounds like a pretty dumb idea to me.
I know it's a little risky and it's going to be a lot of hard work but it's going to be a lot of fun too.
Fun? Where is this store, Flanders? The merry old land of Oz?
Oh, no. The Springfield Mall.
Here, you two, make a wish.
Nah!
It's fun.
No, it isn't.
You must have something you want to wish for.
Hmm, let's see Nah. Hmm
Hey! I've got an ambition to do some wishin'.
Keep your pants on, Flanders! I'm wishing as fast as I can! Ooh! Heh, heh, heh, heh. Eh too far. Hmm Okay, ready.
Yes! Oh, yes! Read it and weep! In your face! I've got more chicken bone!
What did you wish for? No! Don't say. Otherwise, it won't come true.
Ooh, that would be a shame. Wouldn't it, Flanders?
Mmm. Dum-da-dah
D'oh!
Bart how many hours a day do you watch TV?
Six. Seven if there's something good on.
Don't you think you should get a little fresh air?
Yeah, but what are you going to do? TV gives so much and asks so little.
It's a boy's best friend.
That's the problem.
Even as we speak millions of children are staring at the TV instead of getting some much-needed exercise.
Those children's parents should be ashamed of themselves.

Lisa: Dad, do you know what Schadenfreude is?
Homer: No, I don't know what "shaden-frawde" is.
[sarcastic]
Homer: Please tell me, because I'm dying to know.
Lisa: It's a German term for "shameful joy", taking pleasure in the suffering of others.
Homer: Oh, come on Lisa. I'm just glad to see him fall flat on his butt!
[getting mad]
Homer: He's usually all happy and comfortable, and surrounded by loved ones, and it makes me feel... What's the opposite of that shameful joy thing of yours?
Lisa: Sour grapes.
Homer: Boy, those Germans have a word for everything!

Is the Gateway the right way to the moon?
by Jeff Foust — December 25, 2018
When the full NASA Advisory Committee met at NASA Headquarters Dec. 10, agency leadership went on the offensive to build support for the Gateway, emphasizing sustainability over schedule.
“There has been some criticism of the Gateway,” NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine acknowledged. “What we’re doing here at NASA is following Space Policy Directive 1” and its emphasis on sustainability and partnerships, he argued. In that approach, the Gateway becomes a “reusable command module” directing activities on the lunar surface. “The glory of the Gateway is that it is that command module.”
Gerstenmaier showed a chart later in the meeting comparing the Gateway approach to the “Apollo-style” alternative for going directly to the moon. The latter approach, he argued, lacks reusability and doesn’t build infrastructure that can make such exploration more sustainable. It also limited opportunities for international and commercial partnerships.
“Depending on who you talk to, they believe that this can be done faster,” he said of a direct return to the moon that doesn’t develop a Gateway. The advantage of the Gateway, he said, was its sustainability and flexibility. “It’s seen as not optimal for any one particular location on the moon, but it gives you the entire lunar surface.”
“There are people who say we need to get there, and we need to get there tomorrow,” Bridenstine said of those pushing for an immediate, direct return to the moon. “I would argue that we got there in 1969. That race is over, and we won. The time now is to build a sustainable, reusable architecture.”

The Road to Extinction
Of all the creatures who had yet walked on Earth, the man-apes were the first to look steadfastly at the Moon. And though he could not remember it, when he was very young Moon-Watcher would sometimes reach out and try to touch that ghostly face rising above the hills.
He had never succeeded, and now he was old enough to understand why. For first, of course, he must find a high enough tree to climb.

Quotes
Control Voice: (opening narration) At this very moment, our horizon is menaced by two explosive forces, both man-made: one is a deadly wonder, the other wondrously alive. Both forces have compelled Man to reach out for worlds beyond his own, new worlds where he may find peace and room to grow. This is the first of those new worlds. The United Nations of Earth have claimed it and called it Annex One. It is almost identical to Earth, except that there is no night. Sunlight is constant. Early reports from the small expeditionary team stationed on Annex One indicated that the ancient planet appeared to be suitable for colonization by Earth's overflowing population, but the most recent reports have contained unspoken, oddly disturbing undercurrents. And the United Space Agency has decided to investigate. The man chosen: Dr. Evan Marshall, psychiatrist.

The American Presidency Project
RONALD REAGAN
40th President of the United States: 1981 - 1989
Election Night Victory Speech in Los Angeles
November 04, 1980
Let me just say first of all, this has been, well, there's never been a more humbling moment in my life, not only humbled by the extent of what has happened tonight. Even if it had been the cliffhanger that all of us, I think, were expecting, it would have been the same way. But just to have had the support of the people of this country. I consider the trust you have placed in me sacred and I give you my sacred oath that I will do my utmost to justify your faith.
Earlier this evening, I spoke on the phone with President Carter. The president pledged the utmost in cooperation in the transition that will take place in these coming months. I offered him my own cooperation. He graciously said that he wanted this to be the...
[interrupted by applause as someone showed him a map of the electoral vote].
When that began to slide, I thought the world was going out just as I was getting in.
As I say, the president was most gracious about this. And now, all across America, there are some people that I owe a great debt of thanks to. There they are, they are meeting tonight in our national headquarters in Arlington, Virginia, the national committee people, the dedicated professionals who made the campaign run and in every state, in the counties, in the cities, in the precincts, to all of them who worked so tirelessly, literally hundreds of thousands of volunteers, and I've seen them at work throughout the country on this campaign, I just owe them an immeasurable debt of thanks.
To George and Barbara Bush, our running mates, down in Texas, no one has worked harder than they have. We only crossed paths a few times on this campaign and had to go out of our way to do it because their schedule was so heavy. And I can tell you, we're going to have a true partnership and a true friendship in the White House.
And now, as I said before, my family. I'm so grateful to them, for the love, for the support and for the hard work, because some of them were out on the campaign trail easily as much as Nancy and I were.
And speaking of Nancy, she's going to have a new title in a couple of months. And it isn't really new because she's been the first lady in my life for a long time.
Now, we'll share that a little bit in the future.
You know, Abe Lincoln, the day after his election to the presidency, gathered in his office the newsmen who had been covering his campaign and he said to them, "Well boys, you're troubles are over now, mine have just begun."
I think I know what he meant. Lincoln may have been concerned in the troubled times in which he became president but I don't think he was afraid. He was ready to confront the problems and the troubles of a still youthful country, determined to seize the historic opportunity to change things.
And I am not frightened by what lies ahead and I don't believe the American people are frightened by what lies ahead. Together, we're going to do what has to be done. We're going to put America back to work again. You know, I aim to try and tap that great American spirit that opened up this completely undeveloped continent from coast to coast and made it a great nation, survived several wars, survived a Great Depression, and we'll survive the problems we face right now.
When I accepted your nomination for president...I asked for your prayers at that moment. I won't ask for them in this particular moment but I will just say I would be very happy to have them in the days ahead.
All I can say to all of you is thank you and thank you for more than just George Bush and myself, thank you, because if the trend continues, we may very well control one house of the Congress for the first time in a quarter of a century. We have already picked up some governorships and... it looks like a number of the states, we have turned the state legislatures around and so for the first time, they are a majority for us. You did it.
I have one message that I have to give before I leave. I've been upstairs on the phone, trying to get ahold of two celebrations, two parties that are going on, one in Tampico, Illinois, where I was born, and one in Dixon, Illinois, where I grew up. I've got two hometowns. And finally, we managed to get the radio station in that area and they told us that they would broadcast my message to the two parties that are going on, so to all of them, thank you too, back there in the home town.
Thank you all, thanks very much.

(from internet transcript of incomplete dialog)
Apollo: Dr. Baltar, Captain Lee Adama. The President's asked to see you, sir.
Baltar: President Adar is alive?
Apollo: No, I'm afraid Adar is dead. President Laura Roslin was sworn in a couple of hours ago.
Baltar: Oh. Who?

(Back on Roslin's ship - she and Apollo are up in the cockpit)
Radio: This is an official Colonial government broadcast. All ministers and officials should now go to Case Orange. Repeat: This is an official Colonial government broadcast. All ministers and officials should now go to Case Orange.
Roslin: It's an automated message. It's designed to be sent out in case the president, the vice president and most of the cabinet are dead or incapacitated. I need you to send my ID code back on the exact same frequency. D as in dog, dash 456 dash 345 dash A, as in apple. Thank you. (She leaves the cockpit. Apollo follows her back and finds her sitting alone.)
Apollo: How far down?
Roslin: 43rd in line of succession. I know all 42 ahead of me from the President down. Most of us served with him in the first administration. Some of them came with him from the Mayor's office. I was there with him on his first campaign. I never really liked politics; I kept telling myself I was getting out, but... he had this way about him. (The pilot appears with a piece of paper.) Just couldn't say no to him. (He hands her the paper.) Thank you. (She sits up, puts her jacket back on.) We'll need a priest.
