Space Directive Un, Part Duex...no trois..no....

[Wyrd of Gawd]

Politicians are members of a clique.  They all tend to support each others' lies so that their own lies won't get exposed.  As I said, you might live to see reality if China does try to send men to the moon.  Chances are they will do it before we do since Trump and the Repubs are cutting the budget and federal revenues.  

If we have already been there then we have all of the blueprints needed for an easy update using today's technology.  So we should be able to build all of the equipment needed without any hassles and be on the moon within 730 days if we start this Monday.  Even you could run such a program if you had the authority and money.

Well we do have all of the blueprints  (with caveats which those who know anything about the Apollo program will be aware of)

But let us consider a hypothetical. Suppose you want a new computer. Would you rush out to buy an ENIAC?

As I said, if we have the blueprints then it's easy to build the hardware (the rocket and landing module and so forth) and upgrade the software with modern computers.  So we could land in 730 days from Monday morning.  Got it?
