Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1932223 Trying to be a subversive by accusing the EvilGubmint™ of something they

Once a technology has matured a very long time can pass before any new basic innovations are made. During this phase improvements are small steps at the time and very gradual.
We see this again and again.
When it comes to fuel efficiency the Saturns pretty much hit that peak.
Today the cost of lifting a tonne of cargo into LEO isn't much lower then it was in 1973.
