Why we ever left the moon once we got there is beyond me. We would have a base on the moon right now having never left, if it we up to me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why we ever left the moon once we got there is beyond me. We would have a base on the moon right now having never left, if it we up to me. Money. NASA had planned up to Apollo 20. Budget cuts killed the last 3. And the fact that once we got there, there really wasn't much that was "sexy" (unless you were a geologist or an engineer). I love this sort of stuff too. And at the risk of getting it sent to SC, think about how much space stuff (or just about any other stuff) could have been done with the money we spent on the Iraq war."There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

Malta_Dog 0 #6 October 9, 2015 AlanS Money. NASA had planned up to Apollo 20. Budget cuts killed the last 3. ... That. And the fact that the technology was barely up to the task back then. The level of risk was very high, and almost every mission experienced one or two hair-raising moments having the potential to turn into a catastrophe. So after 5 successful missions and 1 successful failure, I think that many decision makers were reluctant to push their luck any further. That being said, the ingeniosity displayed by the space and ground crews to overcome the myriad of small and big problems is impressive. I enjoyed reading the "CVR" transcripts of the flights: http://history.nasa.gov/afj/ and the operations on the Moon surface: https://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/ All your dropzone are belong to us!!!!111!
