Can someone explain to me like I'm a 5 year old idiot how come we've not been able to land on the moon again? Over 50 years ago with technology that is primitive and laughable compared to todays standard we were able to do this feat...should it be a piece of cake today when we have access to all this information/technology that would be seen like alien tech in the past?

My overall understanding is that the missions we had largely covered the science that was felt to be needed and that further missions beyond Apollo 17 were considered fiscally unfeasible for the potential gains.
It costs a lot of money to get a rocket even to LEO, much less to the moon.
There's this thing called the Van Allen radiation belt which we can't get through
If you're wondering how we made it to the moon in the first place it's because we didn't discover the Van Allen radiation belt until afterwards
You never went to the moon, the United States did. There ain't shit there but stupid moon rocks so we didn't go back.
They taped over the video tapes that had the instructions. NASA uses to reuse video tapes and stuff. That's what they said
There isn't really a reason to go back. The Moon is boring. It is literally a chunk of the Earth broken off in a massive impact before life was on Earth. It has a similar mineral makeup to Earth. We mostly went as a pissing contest against USSR and when USSR space program imploded we stopped going to the Moon and only focused on low Earth orbit missions and robotic probe exploration of the rest of the solar system.
>how come we've not been able to land on the moon again?
Money and nothing else
You don't understand. We need to give niggers money so they can buy drugs and fried chicken.
Jesus fuxkimg christ this argument. The van allen belts are only dangerous if you *stay* in the belts. The radiation received by humans has varied from mission to mission, between 0.16 and 1.14 rads, compared to people who work in the field of radioactivity, who absorb around ~5 as set by the US Atomic Energy Commission
It's a hard task.
It's not worth going back at the moment.
That's pretty much it.
The average age of the people working at the Mission Control Center at the time was mid 20's and all white.
These days we have computers to do all the math and calculations so it should be a lot easier, even with current staff issues.
Getting mass out of our gravity well is still exactly as difficult as it was when they brute-forced it with the Saturn.
Look at that monstrosity. All that expenditure to put three people on the moon. Where they found dry rock and vacuum. Neither of which we have any use for.
The Space Race was a pissing contest with the then USSR. The U.S. won, and bankrupted the Soviets by doing so. Having won, there was no on-going reason to return.
Mars offers nothing more. They know this from the robots, so there is no point whatsoever in sending the meat. If they'd had better robots in the 60s, they wouldn't have bothered sending the meat then either.
There's really nothing of interest on the moon save for microgravity.
Rocket technology is still too expensive to make lunar colonies viable (we need a space elevator).
Governments can't properly keep a moon colony from going 1776 on them as they can't even maintain control now.
We didn't ;)
They never went to the moon it was filmed in studio.
We discovered it was an extra-terrestrial base and were warned off, so we aren't even allowed back apart from rovers/drones.
Also we now have FTL propulsion systems and there are far more interesting parts of the universe to explore than the moon.
Because kike politicians didn't want to spend the money for von Braun's colonization infrastructure plan. They locked the country into 30 years of an overly complex low earth orbit vehicle (the space shittle). We are finally going back now but only because elon musk and SpaceX forced the government's hand to stop stealing the money.
The manned moon landings have never been scientifically falsified with proof of man's steps of the moon that can be tested,
- independently
- verifiably
- repeatedly
There's no argument for the manned moon landings until this has been satisfied.
>Giant floating sphere in the sky that has significant influence on our way of living
>Finally can get to it, or so they say
>Common argument is there is nothing on the Moon or it's "boring"
Why do you believe what they tell you and not what you can simply feel from being alive? The more they want you to think there's nothing, the more you should think the opposite.
The moon is an artificial construct.
The paperclip nazis died. Jews and sassy black women can’t make rockets
Brown people need that money more.
>The Moon is boring.
No.
Safety issues.....those guys in 50 years ago literally gambling with their lives. Astronauts were all soldiers ready to die for glory of they country....and many died.
because somethings already there setting up a base
this will explain everything just as you desired, op youtube.com
There's nothing on the moon. No need to waste money.
It would be possible, but why. It was just a pissing competition, why would you spend all that incredible amount of money to do something which has been done before, plenty of times before.
You’re no better than astrology rossties. KYS nigger
They lost the instructions and blue-prints on how to make it possible. All the people that knew how are now dead or too old to remember how to do anything. So America is trying to reverse engineering the old rockets that are in museums to try and work out how it was possible. Reverse engineering takes a lot of time, but eventually they will figure it out.
