Wow ... that's great ... now all they have to do is figure out how to get all this stuff to the moon along with some humans ...
Should be a breeze considering how easy it was 40 years ago and how much our technology has advanced ... What's that ... it's harder than we thought .... ??? JUst get out the old lunar lander plans and go from there ... what's that ... they were all destroyed along with all the telemetry and original video of the landing....!  geez .... what a bummer!

"No they actually went the odd irony was the technology existed to go to the moon in 1969 but not the technology to fake it."

As in videocamera, fake background, and space suit were "unavailable technologies" in 1969?

radiation levels in space are greatly increased. If you are in the space staion your fine but during a space walk you itake in about 6 months worth of normal earth radiation in 24 hours. ATM they are working hard on better suits!

The fact that for this mission to the moon, Nasa is using very similar designs as the last time. Gee, I wonder why, because last time worked! What are all of the deniers going to say when we land there again, and take footage of the last sight? That we quick put all that up there? riiiiiiiight, nothing will prove it to them, because they don't want to believe it
