The existence of Australia is a hoax too. Planes & boats pretend to travel there, but actually go to large movie set in a secret location.

You can't land a shuttle on green cheese.
Mathematician
Reason, and reason again
Those private spacecraft are also only capable of going into low-Earth orbit, keep in mind. They're technically not leaving the atmosphere. The manned missions to the Moon took up an enormous amount of the federal budget; comparatively, what was projected for Mars would have been a lot less, inflation-adjusted.

Maybe the reason or focal point for the space program (back then) was to perfect rocket technology for the ICBM.
That would be like building the Hoover Dam cuz Howard Hughes needed to power his toaster....incredibly non-cost-effective.

I didn't say it was the only reason, but a part of it and a big part of it seems likely.
No....ICBM development wouldn't need such cover.
It proceeded nicely independently.
The real purpose of the space program was to develop Tang.

Money aside, it's really not that hard. I'm not even that good at math and even I realize landing on the moon has something to do with how fast the shuttle is moving, how fast the moon is going, and launching the shuttle at the appropriate time so that the moon is essentially catching the shuttle.

One of the best evidences for the actual manned landing of the moon, aside from what's already been talked about here, is the sheer volume of lunar rocks we brought back.
You can't really fake a lunar rock in an undetectable way (they're older than the oldest Earth rocks since Earth is geologically active), and even if we're willing to suppose an unmanned lander brought them back then you should know that the maximum carrying capacity of even the largest landers is a few pounds at most -- and we brought back over EIGHT HUNDRED pounds of lunar rock (over all the Apollo missions, though this figure does include some unmanned missions, American and Soviet). It's simply not possible for unmanned probes to bring back all of that. That amount requires a manned mission with human hands to pick up some of the samples.

Hah! Part of the conspiracy. Moon rocks are just rocks anyway.
But we can't even verify that, since they're conveniently kept away from the average Joe.
So all we have is the say so of engineers, astronauts & scientists.
We certainly can't trust photos & output from electronic gizmos, which can be constructed to show any desired result.
I suppose that you buy into the fanciful notion that Australia actually exists too, eh?
Agreed
(I hope we're both joking.)
The list of people in the international conspiracy grows
(esp. considering we gave moon rocks to people in countries around the world -- though, to get on the conspiracy bandwagon, MYSTERIOUSLY many of those are now missing... hmmm!)
