For a moment - let's imagine the following:
It is 2011 today. 40 years ago we landed on the Moon, 30 years ago we started to build a lunar base on the Moon and permanently occupied it. Then 20 years ago we did the same research as we currently do on the ISS. And 10 years ago we started our journey to Mars and actually set foot on Mars already.
For a moment, imagine we had a much better understanding of space travel, medicine and health in space. Imagine our advanced knowledge of propulsion, the very different hardware we already invented. Imagine Eileen Collins to have been the first human to set foot on Mars.
Now how different would our life be here on Earth? How different would your job be? Maybe because you chose a different career path due to all the different options available, because of the additional knowledge we already have?
The movie "Man Conquers Space" is based on an alternative timeline to the Mercury-Gemini-Apollo era of reality. It is based on the premise that all that had been proposed in the early 1950's in Collier's actually came to pass - and sooner than they expected.
