No one here is going to mistake you for intelligent. You are just one more idiot spamming up the smart section of youtube with your sad ego drivin assertations of conspiracy theories anyone with any intellect can easily take apart.

it's symptomatic of my high intelligence, not the cause

[monokhem]

The sad thing is, you think believing that BS makes you smart.

No, not really, but both space programs have excelled in different areas. Still, it seems a lot of the Soviet/Russian failures have been more about lack of funding and/or testing (N-1, Phobos-Grunt, Soyuz 1) than lack of technical soundness in the design.

Thank you for the time lapse footage, it made for a shorter and more visually stunning video - SPACEX FTW - BOO YAH!!! :)
