Mini Subs to Moon Landers.

It is interesting to note that in this modern world with all this new stuff around we can't do what we did before.

Take the moon lander. Old, old school but the hardware, softwear and systems worked. Update the lander with new materials, new highspeed computors and better engines. Why start from zero and take 15 years and billions of dollars - unless you plan on retiring in 15 years and want job security.

Have we gone from "getting it done" to "getting a paycheck"?

Seems to be the same with Mini Subs.
