If I had heard this "natural assumption" ten years ago, it would have sounded
natural to me too. But not nowadays my, uh, faith on that assumption is
failing. Maybe it is just my foreign perception, but human space flight in
the US seems stagnant or even decadent (there are even American citizens
actively *against* human space flight), and there are emerging countries
struggling real hard to close the gap. I wonder if some of them will not
succeed and even surpass the US in astronautics.
