66 years is a long time. Considering that 1969 was 56 years ago, we still have 10 years to do something similarly worthwhile.

... 10 years is also a long time. It can wait until tomorrow.

I've had that mindset of "10 years is a long time; what's one more day" since adolescence. Boom, now it's 16 years in the future and I'm suddenly a dysfunctional adult struggling to get through each day.

But on the bright side, I just began medication for ADHD, and it's not only life changing, it's life saving. I feel capable, motivated, and determined for the first time in my life. Let's build the future so that 2035 will be a milestone for humanity!

It's just a question of priorities.

The AI thumbnail isnt real, YouTube faked it in a cooperation effort with the US government to seem like they were winning the AI war between them and China.

Well the equivalent would be to leave the the solar system for this kind of step up. I don't see even setting foot on Mars by 2035...

We got satellites out of our solar system.

Which launched 48 years ago (or 6 years after the moon landing) 😂

Like the recently anounced nuclear reactor ?

I don't think that is as big as the moon landing. Finding alien life would be more in the same vein.

We would need a significant technological boost to be able to see the surfaces of alien worlds, I think that technology alone would be a candidate for innovation. After all whether or not we find aliens is not dependant on the technology but depending on if there are any to find.
