Скачать или смотреть The Decline of Ambition: From JFK's Moon Speech to Modern Hesitations

This video reflects on John F. Kennedy's iconic 1962 speech that spurred the United States to land a man on the moon and discusses the vast achievements that followed.

It contrasts these historical feats with the contemporary reluctance to undertake ambitious and challenging projects, focusing on stalled initiatives such as the UK's HS2 high-speed rail and the rejected Boris Island airport project.

The video critiques modern society's tendency to prioritise safety over bold innovation and questions whether ambition has become a 'dirty word' in today's world.
