This should be going into the campfire.
I'm not even going bother with the 9/11 crap
As for the lunar landings....which part of the Apollo program do you okes doubt?
I fail to see what is so technically impossible.
The line of logic that we need "computing power" to anything is hiddeous. Im not sure what the "computing power" of a modern FMC is but definitely would not induce a hard-on amongst those nerds in your local PC shop thats for sure.
As for SortieIII INS ramblings, INS was developed in the 1940s and was already in use on ICBMs in the 1950s.
Also whats so hard about navigating to the moon when you consider that less than a decade after the Apollo program NASA launched the Voygaer probes which went a good deal further than Apollo. I suppose the crystal clear pictures of Uranus are faked as well
I have nothing against computers but the world has become so f
ed up that we think that if we dont have them nothing would get done. Concorde was designed built and flew many years before MS Windows hit the shelves. The laws of physics do not change and quality engineering is what it was all about.

Wow this thread has gone far off the point!! Anyway I just hope they continue the manned space programs and that they find a safe (and cheap) way to send anyone in to space.
Even some pilots earning minimum wage

Solid tangible proof???
So then you guys had your Mothers and Fathers do DNA tests so that you "know" that they are in fact your parents......but then who knows this whole DNA thing may all just be a hoax...somthing invented so they could make the CSI series.
Strange outlook on life for people who stap bits of metal to their bums and drive through the air. Hope they dont cancel the laws of aerodynamics while we arent looking
Seems to me the space flight idea is there because we are who we are, and for us humans it is just another frontier to conquour or mountain to climb.....because we can
