This proves nothing other than that someone wrote some words on a wikipedia page. Have i ever tasted touched or smelt the moon? No. Have you? Doubtful. But oh yeah were supposed to believe that this white thing in the sky is really a big ball of space rock and that spacemen just walk around on it.

do you believe the earth is round y/n

It doesn't matter what i say to this really because you'll show me some wikipedia page or something again where a science man has written a bunch of words and ill just have to accept it as blind faith. Truthfully? I don't know I've not seen any real proof either way and it doesn't really affect my life what shape it is.

Also, for the depressed people here, we could easily get back to the Moon if we wanted to. But.... Republicans. So we can't.

But that's a political reason, not a technological one. Also, besides "science", what is there for a man to accomplish on the Moon? I can't think of much that's practical

Mining, low-gravity construction/easier launches to other systems, stuff like that.
