Hello Bjrn,
Well if we could go to the moon, so why not? 8-)
Neil Armstrong (allegedly the first man on the Moon) is
rumored to have disclosed his account of what he and "Buzz"
Aldrin saw to an unnamed college professor during a NASA
symposium.
When I say "we" I choose to regard the NASA accomplishment to be a
universal
one, even though a lot of international scientists (including some nazi escapees) were involved.
Certainly, landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely
back to Earth would be a real accomplishment that all peoples
around the world should love and celebrate. But did it really
happen? Just because people want to believe Santa Claus is
real doesn't mean he really is.
When JFK made his famous speech at Rice University (open air
during a hot muggy day in the football stadium) in Houston,
Texas not many people in the stands were paying attention. Until
he asked the crowd "Why does Rice play Texas?" That woke them
up, and everybody cheered. Then he went on to talk about his
program to land a man on the Moon and return him safely back
to Earth before the end of the decade. This is what was known
as Project Camelot. However, it has since been revealed that
Project Camelot had a much different goal -

But don't you ever forget that the entire planet took pride in what the
US
tax payers footed the bill for.
People took pride in a fairy tale they had been led to believe
had come true. That it really happened. Today, not so many
people believe. In fact, a majority of people in the UK believe
it was all fake. If another poll is taken in the US, the same
here would be found that most folks today believe it was all
faked (the last poll taken in the US on the subject was decades
ago).
The majority of people on this planet were not even born when
astronauts alledgedly landed on the Moon. So who can blame them
for not believing? A claim with nothing to back it up is an
empty claim. Unless it is told by Donald Trump, who does not
believe in climate change, or that Barack Obama was born in
the USA.
Why did NASA claim to have landed a man on the Moon and to
have brought him safely back to Earth? The real reason was not
so people around the world would feel great pride that man had
landed on the Moon, but rather so that the US could show the
USSR it had nuclear missiles that were so accurate they could
hit a target a quarter million miles away on the Moon.
Without that huge bill, we would probably still barely be having pocket calculators and still be having rotary dial phones over copper wires.
How much does it cost to send a missile to the Moon, versus
the cost of sending astronauts to the Moon and return them
safely back to Earth? Stanley Kubrick had us all believe we
could fly to Jupiter. Along with building a giant space
station in orbit around the Earth. Perhaps that is why NASA
hired him to produce a series of short mini-movies. To have
folks believe it had sent astronauts to the Moon. Not that
any of them really got there.
What better place to film those movies than just outside
of Las Vegas? The astronauts could play the slots during
the day, and also have lots of other entertainment on the
side. Then at night they could play their parts as actors
directed by the great Stanley Kubrick.
NASA is quasi-military. The astronauts who supposedly went to
the Moon were test pilots, having served in the military. Why
put their own lives on the line when they didn't have to? All
the POTUS wanted to do was show the Soviets the US had nuclear
weapons that were super-accurate, and had a range that was truly
out of this world.
The funds saved by faking the Moon landings were used for other
things. Such as protecting the POTUS from Watergate ...
All of the recent NASA adventures are still totally awesome.
Astronauts, cosmonauts, taikonauts, all their adventures
are awesome. But none has ever walked on the surface of the
Moon. NASA has made a few claims, but none of those claims
have been independently verified.
One of the greatest accomplishments of NASA is the International
Space Station. It is actually an international endeavor, not just
something that has been funded and run by the USA. However, it
should be noted that China was not invited.
What will China do when it becomes the first nation on Earth
to successfully land a taikonaut on the Moon? And a lunar base
on the Moon? Do you think China will let the US or Russia share
in any of its glory?
Perpaps Sweden should have its own space program. That way,
it can be sure to get wherever it wants to go. And never be
denied the right to own even a small piece of the Moon.
Journalists and reporters should be allowed to join the next
crew of astronauts/cosmonauts/taikonauts who attempt such a
mad adventure. If they succeed, the entire world will know,
including those who still think climate change is a hoax and
Barack Obama was born in Kenya.
You should be proud of what your country has achieved rather than denying it!
Where is independent verification that man has ever set foot
on the Moon? Lack of proof is not denial. If I claim to be
Superman, would you believe me just because I say so? Or
if somebody else says so? Certainly you must be smarter than
that ...

Awesome! Now please explain why Pluto is no longer considered
being a planet, while still having two moons ...
The USSR accomplished the same thing as NASA within a month.
Landed on the Moon. With all its cosmonauts remaining on Earth.
What this shows is that scientists and engineers around the
world are capable of doing many things. Not just those in the
US.
