    We could have done the same goddamn thing without any people risking their lives strapped to bus atop a rocket.

      We could have tested the safety of a manned mission without people on the manned mission? How in the hell do we do that?

        We could have taken picture’s of the moon’s ass.

        There is literally zero reason for us to put people in space when we can send drones to do it.

          They’re there to gather data on the moon’s surface and how being on a manned mission affects the human body.

          We already have pictures of the dark side of the moon, so the intention this time was for the human eye to view it, since it gets much more detail anyway.

            They’ve been testing the effects of low gravity on the human body in the ISS the whole time, they absolutely do not need to send people to the moon for that. Everything they’re doing right now could be done by an unmanned mission.

                  Nothing anyone says will convince you since you clearly decided you were against this, no matter what.

                  Logic didn’t cause this opinion, so logic won’t convince you.

                    Your argument fails to account for technology we’ve been using for over a century, logic does not support you at all you fucking moron
