Did man really visit the moon in 1969? Why haven't they been since?

petrols too expensive, and the trains are so un-reliable

because it's old news, lets visit the sun instead.

Not much up there!

Because it's a ****ing waste of time.

'cause it's boring

I don't know. Sorry.

'cause they didn't go in the first place... /controversial :mmm:

Why would anyone want to go there?

It's worse than Hull.

Because a lot of getting to the moon in the late 60's / early 70's was politically motivated.

Plus now its too costly and not that high on the list of priorities.

Closed for repairs

Its slowly getting moldy and they believe that you can't walk on it without it crumbling

The last lunar landing was in December 1972. But anyway, it's really expensive. NASA was planning to go with its "Constellation" program but it was cancelled not long ago :s-smilie:

They need to set up a lunar base to be honest, it would be a much more cost effective way of discovering more about long term travel in space, in the long run at least.
