    Yes, but NASA guaranteed that Science got to go along for the ride.
    Now it's just more fear and loathing in Las Vegas.

    Until the Saturn series, all American space-launch vehicles got their starts
    as nuclear warhead carriers (Redstone, Jupiter, Thor, Atlas, Titan)...

    No kidding. The first satellites were launched by ICBMs. It didn't
    take long before all sorts of spy satellites and military communications satellites were being launched. And no one should forget that GPS was
    first and foremost a military program.
