Back then most college students as well as wider society seemed more interested in reality shows, materialism, and partying. Not to say those things are bad but why not aspire to be athletic, fun loving, and yet smart? Like those badass Apollo astronauts.
Society also lost interest in sci fi and space.

I look back and find it appalling how vapid it was.
Why did society felt they had to choose between popularity and intelligence? Why did society stopped being encouraged to push themselves intellectually?
Should astronauts become cool again?
