re: So-called "moon landing"

It's impossible for man to fly to the moon in a rocket. 50 years later with 1 million times the technology

No dipshit, it is nowhere near "impossible"

At the time, it was extraordinarily expensive, risky and ... eventually ... unnecessary.

How risky? Of the 36 Apollo mission astronauts - Apollo 1, 7-17, three were cooked alive. Three miraculously survived a mid-space capsule explosion, and there were several other near misses. So the fatality incidence was > 8% and could very easily have been double that.


As with the A-Bomb, our applied science in that era was decades ahead of the world. The Soviets stole our materials to close the gap. China remained 20 yrs behind.
What's changed? The concept of an eventual moonbase and Mars staging.

Perhaps your next denial should address the Hindenburg disaster? It must never have occurred because nothing the size of the Hindenburg has been built since. Right?
