Except that's silly. Zimbabwe could launch a Space Program and have a colony on Mars by 2030. I should never say never right? Trump will not win because hcannot win because the American people for all our flaws aren't that dumb.
Well, nothing is impossible.
On Oct. 30, 1964, TIME magazine reported on the celebration of the independence of Zambia (formerly Northern Rhodesia), with its new president, Kenneth Kaunda.
But as the jubilant crowds celebrated, one man complained that the festivities were interfering with his “space program.” Edward Makuka Nkoloso informed the TIME reporter that his Zambian “astronauts” would beat both the US and the Soviet Union in the space race — by going to the moon, and then to Mars.
