:thumbup: Not everyday shot.
One more to the Moon ? They really want to put another man on our natural satellite ? Should be easier than first time. With all this digital technology.
 
China is planning on landing a man on the moon before the close of this year.

How America can cut funding on NASA programs, yet "Find Funding" for a run on Syria is beyond me, but that is a different story and perhaps not suitable for here. . .

You would think sending another man to the moon would be easy for a country who has done it several times in the past using 1960's technology. Oddly enough, it seems reaching the moon today is darn near impossible. It makes you wonder sometimes.
 
The entire year's budget for NASA would only keep the US Department of Defense going for part of a day.

The US does not have a rocket powerful enough to send men and all the equipment they would need to the moon.
