surely something doesnt seem right?

dont tell me no advanced country can come up with the money.. heck if there was a way, the USA would pay for it.. we spend billions on space research yearly.. so funding isnt an issue, well not for 30 years in a row now
i guess you skipped over my factoid comment on page 1, where i stated the budget for NASA to get us to the moon was 5% of our nation's ENTIRE budget for several years. do you know what NASA's budget is today? a % of 1%.

fact is, it is ridiculously expensive to go to the moon AND the goals of NASA changed after that to the shuttle program, launching satellites, mars, hubble telescope, etc.


it's really not a valid argument to say that all 6 lunar landings were a hoax simply because we haven't gone back a 7th time or multiple more times after that.
