Just a thought experiment. What would be the equivalent to that today?


I wouldn't even put sending a man to Mars in the same category. Because it is using technology that has been proven over decades and systems that aren't considered experimental or in development.

It would have to be something ridiculously fantastic. Like sending a man to the sun(I'm kidding here. lol). Or, maybe developing teleportation and attempting to send a man through it. I can't imagine what would be new and unproven that we would later say, THAT took balls.
