    As long as you can keep them out of the political echoes, which are just as bad as social media. ;)

    By the way, what do you think of the Earth possibly being flat? And do you think we really went to the moon in 1969? ;) (kidding)

    Poppycock, and yes. :D

    you think we really went to the moon in 1969?

    Never looked into it much.

    Do you think they had enough fuel to land, take off again, and make the return trip? Pictures of the craft make me wonder.


    The moons gravity is about 1/16th that of Earth?

    So a lot less fuel is required to reach escape velocity and counter its pull.

    The most compelling argument FOR the moon landing, was a doco I saw on how it could be faked. The arguments for it being faked seemed so easily debunked.

    That and the Russians would certainly have caught the US faking it. They
    would have been able to tell if nothing went up.

    nobody would have trusted to use that shit.
