I'm tipping they have way more power than the Space Shuttle.

What is interesting is all those that went to the moon were test pilots, all but one.
In the last mission they sent a geologist, Harrison Schmitt.
You know, they learnt more about the geology of the moon from that mission than from all the hundreds of kg's of rock collected from all the other missions. That was because Dr Schmitt knew what to collect. Dr Schmitt's space suit was also the dirtiest that ever returned and has never been cleaned.

A dozen people have been up there and they left a bloody mess, not cleaning up their campsite and leaving all their crap behind.
Not setting a good example at all.

Reason nobody has been back (that we know about....).
OHS and politicians that can't handle bad news and risk.

Recently read the book "Moondust: In Search Of The Men Who Fell To Earth"
The writer/journo set out to interview those still alive that made the trip.
Interesting read.

I imagine the Chinese will be next,
Imagine being strapped into your Great Wall lunar module on top of your Sino booster. :o

And it seems most drivers cant even get to the shops without consulting their GPS or other gizmo !It would be nice to have another great space project to follow.

when I first looked at this pic I thought it was in black and white,,,

Typical scientists! You give e'm a Dulux colour card, sorry color card, and they choose the least fuss option of black and white. And further, they were told they couldn't just have either black or white as it was not an issue of 'fact'.

More anti-hoax sites. Bad Astronomy is a great place to go for astronomy information.
