Yeah. These prove why we don’t need to bother going back to the moon. It looks just like it did 40 years ago this month when we went the first time.

This is an amazingly important transition period at NASA, and I hope the new director is not just a caretaker type, but instead has a vision for where we want to go (MARS!!!!).
