Fuck For All Mankind, I want to see 2001: A Space Odyssey’s timeline come to life

>NASA scraps the shuttle and continues with a lunar base in the 70’s
>The N1 isnt shit and also builds a lunar base at the same time for the USSR
>NASA and the USSR race to mars in the 80’s, and a permanent base for each is established later
>With their hands full, NASA incentivized private industry to build the Space Shuttle, but without retarded USAF requirements
>In the 1980’s, Lockheed’s Starclipper starts flying, allowing space industry to expand further
>Also in the 80’s, the USSR basically becomes modern-day China, where they are capitalist and communist in name only
>By the mid 90’s, there are colonies on the moon and bases on Mars with the fully reusable descendant of the Starclipper allowing regular people to visit space hotels and stuff
>Mission to Jupiter in 2001
