Again I think the best argument by far about this is the one I originally posted. People would suggest we didn't have the tech to make moon landing. For that to be true we would need the tech to fake it. You can't have it both ways....
Why haven't private companies done or been allowed to take people to the moon yet? Like actually land on the moon and walk around?
Answer: ?
You can't tell me that many people wouldn't pay for it... or there isn't a demand.

That's exactly what I can tell you. The pricetag puts it beyond private means.
Dane, we may not agree on some things, but I tend to agree with you on the demand for moon travel, and what it costs to send passengers there. It's not something an average consumer could afford, and with current space transport technology it's just not feasible. Maybe a billionaire would want to get to the moon and experience walking around the surface with low gravity just for fun, and watch the earth rise from the moon, but that still might not be something a billionaire would want to waste his/her valuable financial resources on. Maybe when space transport technology becomes as main-stream as the aviation/commercial air travel industry, if that'll ever happen, but certainly not now.
There is a company that wants to transport people to Mars to establish a colony on there, and I'm sure that wouldn't be a cheap project.
Almost 50 years after man walked on the moon, the “giant leap for mankind” is under the microscope once again – with conspiracy theorists convinced they have proof one of the moon landings was fake.
A picture allegedly taken in December 1972 of the final Apollo 17 moon mission has been shared online, and shows what one YouTuber believes is the reflection of a “stagehand” in the helmet of one of the astronauts.
Rather than trying to prove the Moon landing was a fake. Tell us why it matters now after all this time and what can be done about it now?
It seems to me as if it is is all tied up in disclosure and there are too many people who have gone along with the Big Lie for them to admit it now.
Think of the billions of dollars wasted. Think of the millions of people who would want revenge for telling us lies. As they said in the 2013 Citizens Hearing, we should go for an amnesty and 'forgive' anything which has been in the past. Now, we need to move forward to a better future for all.

Hilarious!!!!! Those of us who actually have a background in science just get tired of responding to the ostriches.

Wow! you have obviously run out of things to say about the original topic. This is such a sad situation when a certain set of people have to find nit-pickings to comment on. Why bother? Obviously cannot just let it go if you dont agree with it. I did not even comment on the original Moon landing hoax subject.
A huge portion of the population thinks the government is hiding something when it comes to space travel. To a greater of lesser extent. Some believe the Moon landing was hoaxed, and some believe the government has developed an alternative antigravity space program which facilitated the Moon landing.
So, it seems you, Dirt Grinder are trying to fight a losing battle against (possibly) the majority.
I would suggest that it is not these others, the ones you are responding to, who are ostriches, but the people who continue to support the governments line of thinking. They are the ones with their heads in the sand.
