Inspired by the old game Buzz Aldrin's Race Into Space. While there are brownie points for landing on the moon ahead of schedule, there is also the part of the game where you've failed to get to the moon by 1970. It's interesting, because the game does not expect nor want you to get to this point. This is the point where the game recognizes your incompetence, kicks in with it's Easter eggs, and blasts you for thoroughly failing to complete Kennedy's schedule. Among the Easter eggs is Chuck Yeager as an astronaut recruit, because you need all the help you can get. I believe it goes to 1977.

Based upon that, what if the United States had thoroughly botched the schedule for landing on the moon by 1970?
