Why limited units only? Doesn’t jibe with what NASA is doing exploring unlimited SPACE…make it available if possible I’m sure there are more than 60 individuals who wants to own one
So – NASA could not find a company in the US to make a dumb watch? …maybe that’s indicative of why there are 7Mil job openings in the States. We’re either on disability or food stamps; our gene pool is settling to the bottom. Jeeez!
