"This has been the most remarkable decade of research and development in history, and the space program has been the core of it."
- Washington Daily News editorial (after the Apollo 15 mission), 8-9-71

"The Apollo program was born a decade ago as an element in Soviet-American rivalry for prestige and political advantage. But the program's brilliant success has made obsolete the nationalistic considerations that seemed so important in the early 1960's. Now it is evident that lunar exploration and eventual settlement offer rewards and challenges for all mankind. Do Washinton and Moscow have the courage and imagination to begin making that prospect a reality?"
- New York Times editorial, 8-8-71
