Excellent points! Very notable of their times, but not super unique today. I think most wealthy nations probably have a space program or contribute to a collective one and their own pseudo universe of internet. It’s more relevant than talking about Henry Ford and his assembly line, but I don’t think they’re super different.

Yes, as we know, the notability of national accomplishments diminishes as a function of time… other nations would never consider being proud of anything their ancestors accomplished before they were born. Lmao

If you don’t have enough things to be proud of as an American, which nationality would be good enough to meet your standards?
