I want one of these cool toys! Do they make a junior version for the hobbyist?

@40390576 yes, it was autonomous as any other vehicle of the challenge. That it the real improvement over 60 year-old VTOL rocket-powered platforms with a human pilot (w ww.youtube.co m/watch?v=AH0VYi1G6jo). I was belligerant since I was killing off a moon hoaxer, xismxist, that was saying that this rocket could not go to the moon so moon landing is a hoax. :)
As for the fuckup, that's rocketry. Half the fun is not blowing up when you fire the engines.

@STEVEDIGIBOYtv van allen belt is an issue only if you camp there for weeks. Apollo didn't.

The public was far less educated, those war guys like Von Braun were sketchy and their histories hidden so not sure the tech was there for sheilding the Van Allen belt either.

@xismxist I'm not the uplaoder of the video so I cannot change the name.
The main reason this won't go anywhere near the moon anytime soon is much more fundamental than "it cannot land on dust" though. That's just an issue of designing legs for dust landing (with much wider "feet" like the Apollo lander), which any engineer can do while sleeping.
The main issue is that we don't have rockets capable of sending decent payloads on the moon (at a speed compatible with landing).

@bobafetthotmail then change the name for it, your fraud liar! iknow that nab rocket isnt going to the moon beause it cant even land on dust here on earth

@xismxist Here the challenge was designig a rocket able to VTOL on its own (this thing isn't remote-guided). A critical step towards a pilotless lunar lander. But it is just a step. The thing in the video is not going on the moon due to various reasons, but its computers and software will serve to design the True Thing's.
The name "lunar challenge" was chosen since it is evocative of the final goal of this tech.
If you just want to claim moon landing is a hoax, fuck off.

@bobafetthotmail it wont be much of a "lunar challenge" if the landing dont take place on dust.... they had no landing plate when they claimed to land on the moon... u got the picture?
