Yesternight NASA (through CNN) did a very good job of shooting down the claims that Apollo was staged. hmmm..... Still remains a puzzle.. I think it comes down to who you want to believe..
Just sad to realize that all those primary school teachings (on Neil being the first on the moon) *may* have been a lie..

But probably what you call thinking is not thinking at all....

@Obayi, please, please allow people to be skeptical. If Newton had eaten the apple unquestioningly-I know I'd have done that - he probably would not have made the discoveries he did.
We all know there are conspiracies and coverups everywhere. All we are asking is: could the trip to the moon be one of them?
To me, that's fascinating.

The cost of going to the moon is prohibitive. its one of the issues on debate whether american tax payers will be able to pay for and/or will be required to pay for another moon trip. Because think about it. why should USA spend billions of dollars on a single trip to go to the moon?
To do what? Collect moon rocks?
It doesnt make sense to keep going to the moon to collect the same rock samples. there is nothing new on the moon to justify repeated trips. Thats what sampling is all about. pick samples from different areas and analyse them. Most of the rocks on the moon are simply the same ones you get here on earth with a few exceptions. So it doesnt make good Financial sense to have continued moon missions.
Even Space shuttle missions are basically maintenanace missions of existing satelites, the space station and stuff like the hubble telescope & whatever else is up there. Now about solar radiation, the same radiation thats on the moon is the same radiation they are exposed to when doing space walks. As i write this the space shuttle endeavor is in space and they are putting up an external platform so they are gonna do quite a number of space walks. Dont think since it was the 60s they were not brilliant. That error had brilliant minds. These guys were turned into geniuses by the NAZIs and like i mentioned before Radiotion has been arounf for a loooooong time... Ask the japanese of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Scientists of the early days did th same computations we do today. Math is Math. Those people coded in machine language. Show me a programmer today who codes using machine language... and am not talking about Assembly Language.
So like i said you need to stop trying to prove that these guys didnt do all the stuff they did because it seems you really dont know much about the road map of the space program. A moon visit stopped being financially viable since the 70's The only interest in the moon would now be to either build a space station there (which wont happen soon) or to do space tourism. So unfortunately the answer to your moon visit dilema simply boils down to lack of Money. Remeber Nasa is tax payer funded.
All in all NASA has some serious Kick butt minds working for them you just need to take a trip down to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida and see the stuff they will let you handle.

But Nasa was not selling us beliefs - they were trying to sell 'scientific facts' to the human race....
A question - seeing as the moon has no atmosphere - can a human being on first attempt in the 60s be able to survive the lately detected solar radiation ? [no chimps sent prior, mind you]
What guarantee do we have that one wont be instantly microwaved and cooked in those fancy silver suits ?
I like NASA, they have provided all these medical and technological break throughs - But how come they are not attempting a moon landing nowadays ?
Its a valid question when you think about it...
