Twiceshy asks:Will returning to the moon help?

Are a very convenient method to justify false premises. When one factors in the human element, it becomes quite obvious that we did indeed land on and return from our moon, for the simple reason the humans can't keep their mouths shut. This world is way too open to keep that secret, let alone most other "conspiracies". We feel that exploration is critical in ANY direction, as has been proven countless times.

some nutjob with a daft theory... of course we went...

By now we should have a fully operational moonbase as our first stepping stone to the stars... doesn't anyone else here want to go see what's out there with me?

The question here is whether something green can be done on the moon. why not if the effort is made in that direction. But to tell the truth it is my gut feeling that even if we do land on the moon, we will start polluting it the way we have polluted earth.

There is quite a large movement that says that the US astronauts did not go to the moon at all; that it was all filmed in a studio.

If we didn't actually go to the moon, such a thing could never have been kept secret. Someone, probably MANY people would have told someone who told someon who told someone...

stepping stone for the conquest of the universe. i don't belive it can support a sustained settlement.

...but there are some research and manufacturing procedures that are done better in a lesser degree of gravity; if it's green researching and manufacturing, the moon would be a prime place for such goings-on.

Way back when it was fancied that the Moon was made of green cheese. Fanciful idea, turned out to be not quite true. I don't know if that's a bad thing or not.
