Act your age

The astronauts who are off on a jaunt round the Moon; not a landing; said they’re doing it for all mankind. Someone needs to tell NASA to grow up and stop making its people offer what is obviously cringeworthy BS.
    Everyone knows that they’re trying to get a base established on the Moon before the Chinese get their act together and claim it as their territory.
    And going further away from The Planet than anyone has ever gone before? Not that much further, so not a big deal and certainly not worth mentioning. Unless you’re really, really, really desperate.
