John_Yossarian - interesting point. This was discussed before, but the search functionality in this forum is far too basic and doesnāt seem to search content, only users and topics.
I think ultimately ACS needs to think of its name and the associations of it in light of whatās happening in the world right now. Itās ultimately a marketing decision, as, whatever the name is, the machine is the same. Personally if I were to buy one I wouldnāt care, but thatās me. Unfortunately people will tend to, generically speaking, associate it with the origin of the name and recent events rather than the era of the space race itself.
