    @MS User: yes, you can if you compartmentalize enough.
    The workers who build the first tanks had no idea what they were building, that's why you have the word "tank" for it, because they thought they were building tanks as in liquid storage containers.

    P.S. Pigs don't fly...

    The difference between the two is that one was a secret wartime project and the other was a globally advertised national project. In terms of personnel involved, the US national space program dwarfed the tank program.
    No hoax or cover-up involved.

    I'm not underestimating man, I just don't believe they went to the moon the way they said they did. I know who Werner Von Braun was [OSS(CIA predecessor) operation Paperclip rings a bell? probably not :D].

    P.S. The hand is always quicker than the eye.

    You think they used the pulley and ropes to tell the aliens on the moon to send down the bucket ?

    Nope. They used something much simpler, 'cause the aliens are on the "dark side" of the moon.

    Nobody asked himself/herself why the moon is the only satellite in our solar system that shows only one side to the planet that revolves around? :g:

    But aliens are not what you think. It is really as simple as being another life you will never live. Imagine the way cats communicate and think as just that; cats. Now imagine what an alien is thinking. They are that much more advanced that makes them believe we are the lowest on the life change that they won't even associate with us!

    "Alien" is not just a term to describe a weird, cyclops looking brown/green thing that flys on wheels like ET. It's a simple term to describe something that otherwise would not belong. Hence where "illegal alien" come from. There are no green people.. nor "alien" brown.

    So the next time you think you hear someones voice but you are alone, strike up a conversation.

    This -should- smack people in the face, but truth is, most people will walk right past this video and go to the Windows 10 section (y'know...for the Windows crack :D )

    I watched the video and I thought to myself: poor chimp, has no clue where he lives.
    When he started with 9/11...it was obvious this guy is as smart as a banana.
    Sleep well Billy.

    P.S. The power of comodore-64 (claimed to have been used in the moon landing missions) is nothing compared with Sunway TaihuLight, which is the new No. 1 system with 93 petaflop/s from June 2016, still the ONLY argument of not going back there is...money.
    No money? Really? How about all the billionaires on the planet? If they donate 1% to the cause, NASA can go to the Moon and back 10 times a year for the next 5 years.

    :g: You ever heard of people, these days, with money putting money into something with little to no returns? It's like someone asking you to donate money to their vacation. If they found gold and diamonds on the moon and it was easy to get at then I bet there would be daily flights there !

    If they gave away their $$$ then they probably would not have been millionaires

    No, I don't yet think it was a hoax, but have already begun to have doubts. And the more time goes by without it being repeated, whatever the excuses, the stronger the doubts get.

    EDIT: As for financing the undertaking, that's easy: ads. Just imagine how many big corporations would pay big money to be able to say that an ad of theirs has been placed on the moon. "As seen on the Moon".

    can you imagine.... a lit up neon Trump tower sign on the moon visible from the earth.
    It sez: "Vote for me and I'll set you free!!"
