There is only one question that comes to my mind...how long can it last. Life, if you haven't noticed, is no bed of roses. The Cold War has reached new heights. unknown to the children of the '60s. Inflation is still rampant, and the streets are not safe in the major cities. But America is back on its feet, or so everyone says. We have opened a new frontier in space, or so we are told. But what is the new frontier? What will this new era bring with it? NASA public relations men say the shuttle will open up new frontiers in medicine, energy and communica- tions. Yet there is only one major reason the shuttle was sent up, and it is quite obvious. It is for the military. Now we have the technology to "whoop the Rustles." We will be able to venture into space, almost at will, and set up whatever kind of Star Wars weapons the Pentagon and Rockwell have come up with recent- ly, all in the name of peace on earth. This machine is of and for the military, born in the fiery evening skies of London four decades ago with the first buzz bombs and destined to carry the military hard- ware of the future that may well spell our final destruction. Yet, for most of America, it spells the future. Like ignorant dogs sniffing at poisoned food, this country salivates at the things the ree shuttle can Mitv> do. And there is no one who salivates more than the military minds of this country.
