SpaceX does a good job, but it didn't exist in 1969. My own take on this is that as a society we simply don't care and are generally worse at our jobs.

It's always assumed that things are constantly getting better, but I'm reminded at moments like this that over the course of nearly 60 years, we've not progressed as much as we'd like to think.
