To the Moon we go!

One thing the IT world has in common with the real world is that our projects fail, too. The art is to learn from the failing projects, get back in the rocket, so to speak, and head for space again. So it was great to get the news from Washington that NASA is planning to put people back on the moon. It'll cost $100 billion, but the effort will return us to the moon by 2018.

Sounds like a big project with plenty of opportunities for failure.

As a taxpayer, I am happy to see my tax dollars spent on exploring space and expanding our opportunities for the future. Go NASA! I am looking forward to reading “An Astronaut’s Blog from the Moon” in 2018.
