re: Sorry gullible tards, but the US never went to the moon in person

We didn't have the tech to go there and still don't. It's why man has never been out of orbit since. It was a hoax to get ahead of Russia. Where have astronauts gone since then? Nowhere. We send robots. Humans cost zero. How much does that robot cost? We look at 100yds of moon and we know it all. Get real. We've never been out of the atmosphere.

Don’t even care.

It costs money to train and equip humans. It’s the same reasons why drones or robots are sent to try and handle bombs rather than humans.
Dumb argument

Space exploration is racist.

Imagine being this fricking stupid, and still having the right to vote.

Wait - you're denying LEO stuff, too? FFS, you can see the ISS with the naked eye, my guy.

The internet was better when you had to be somewhat intelligent to use it. Now it's people like this that just make my head ache with their stupidity. And they congregate together and reinforce the stupidity. I can't always tell if it's an act or serious.

Imagine 60s technology getting us to the moon and yet 60yrs later man has never set foot anywhere in space since. You are gullible.

Is it though? Civilization forgot how to make concrete for 1500 years.
For the love of god, can y’all actually verify stupid shite for a change? The medieval era wasn’t some cruel dark era where people lived in mud huts and used sticks in stones. Idk if you have ever seen a cathedral but it definitely looks more fricking complicated and sophisticated than a Roman colosseum. IDK it could be me though.
Also, all of y’all have still failed to present a legitimate case of technology going backwards. For example, humans didn’t forget how to farm, build a boat, build a house, write, etc after the Bronze Age collapse for example. The only case this has ever happened in human history was apparently sending a human to the moon.

Do we still sail across the Atlantic to discover America?
I wonder how many people could still build the Pinta or the Santa Maria - I doubt there are many.
There's been no point in going back to the moon - that's why we stopped. The people involved in the program are all gone - the Saturn V is a dead program. Funding for alternative programs isn't abundant.

How the frick do you 'destroy a technology'?
Getting back to the crucial question of the thread and trying to keep it as adult as possible:
1. Infrastructure and logistics are real, actual things. Life isn't the movies (for our purposes here, these are the Apollo systems, personnel, engineering, contractors, all the people, facilities and equipment that designed/built/operated/maintained the things that went to the Moon.)
2. The things in #1 typically cost money to maintain, even if you're not using them.
3. If you commit a huge amount of resources to a project, build up #1, then you're able to do things for a period of time.
4. If you decide the total costs aren't worth it to continue operations, #1 typically gets dismantled as well.
Now, a good bit of that infrastructure was put into Skylab, the Space Shuttle Program, Hubble, the ISS, Mars rovers, Webb, etc.
So, to get back to sending actual people (not rovers/robots/drones) to the Moon (or Mars), you have to do #1 all over again, for the most part, because LEO is only half the battle.

Buzz Aldrin Says we didnt go to the moon. I gonna believe the guy that supposedly went to the moon and says he didnt really.

Dude, get a grip on yourself. We could send a man to the Moon in 2025 or 2026 (possibly a little quicker), if someone wanted to commit the resources. It is a fairly basic engineering problem that costs a tremendous amount of resources. There is no will for that.
FFS, Walter fricking Mondale tried to shut down Apollo at the time (using Apollo 1 as an excuse) because it was insanely inexpensive.

You haven't made a case of technology going backwards FWIW

I'm going to need a link for that, because he slugged a guy who accused him of this very thing in person.

When SpaceX/NASA puts a person back on the Moon within 10 years I hope all you conspiracy tards disappear
