I guess back in the late 60's anything seemed possible when it came to space flight. They had no idea we would spend the next 50 years sitting on our ass doing nothing about sending people to other worlds.

That's hardly the same thing. The world will stand still and everyone will watch when ( or if ) man ever returns to the moon or to Mars. A probe landing on another world interests only scientists and a few avid followers ( I admit I'm one of them ). But the general public doesn't care that much.

That's not as silly as it sounds. Once space travel and exploitation becomes profitable and relatively safe then you will se a new gold rush emerge. Once their is money to be made there will be no stopping companies and rich individuals from selling their wares. Unfortunately because space travel is still so hideously expensive and dangerous than only major nation states can play the game, at least for now.
