Plus the TV ratings showed a precipitous drop.

Now there's a strawman argument. The ratings are dropping, so it's no longer worth doing? Is this what American society has become? If no one's going to watch it on TV, let's just drop it?

I don't for a minute believe the one has anything to do with the other. When's the last time you watched footage from the South Pole station? Should we stop that as well?

Oh look, no one is watching cancer research on TV. Maybe we should put an end to that.

Poor Buzz Aldrin. He even got a Movie character named after him, and still no one knows him

People in general have a small threshhold for boredom. That's not an argument against it.

Do you think people will remember the name of the first person to lead a permanent base on the moon? I suspect they would. How about the first people to visit Mars? First mayor of Luna City?

People remember firsts. That's just human nature. Let's keep on making more firsts.

But my sincere thanks and congratulations go to the people who keep on slogging in between the firsts -- and make the firsts possible.

No way. I can't think of one person I've heard of being on that show that I would want to have in my home. Unless...can I practice my knife throwing?
