This movie is some SJW bullshit because they didn't show any American flags in the first trailer. Bunch of globalist cucks.

How many of the twelve moonwalkers (Ambulemus Luna) are still alive? Three...four?

Or would it be Ambulatis Luna Duodecim?

"50 years ago man walked on another world."


Yeah, I watched him do it, live.

BTW, they don't show the American Flag anywhere in the movie. I guess they were afraid they would insult the Fijians.

I don't see any reason to see it or add it to my collection.

I saw it and they didn't show the planting of the flag but the flag was on the lander and the Saturn V (as well as "United States").

Obviously, I was speaking of the 'planted' flag.

It was kinda slow and had some 'but whitey is on the moon' crap as well as speculation on what Armstrong left in the crater but it still was a tribute to one of Earths greatest heroes and what can be accomplished when there is a collective will. Sad to discard automatically what could be a spring board to further exploration. And btw liberal press is calling it "accidental right-wing fitish object" lol

Actually, three Black Women were very instrumental in getting them to the moon. The book, Hidden Figures, was made into a movie.

I haven't gotten to the book yet but the movie is fun.

Actually, after they got back I started losing respect for Neil Armstrong. He could have inspired tens of thousands of youngsters to be scientists or astronauts or whatever.

Instead, he became all but a recluse and never spoke to a single group of kids as far as I know.

Regardless he is now in the company of Columbus, Magellan, and Polo. Maybe even Skylax, Pythias, and Ericson.

Put it this way. He will be remembered long after people forget Trump, unless he starts a world war.

hood, can you even begin to understand what I posted?


Thought not.



McKobb, no doubt he was the first. But he could have done so much to inspire kids from all over the world.

He just quit when the job was only half finished.

He should have visited at least 500 schools to talk to the kids and get them excited about science.

Instead, where are we ranked in graduating new scientists? Seems like the last I heard we were about 18th I think.

McKobb, I'm not so sure.

If we win substantially in three weeks I honestly believe that history will rank Trump right up there with Jefferson, Adams, Madison and perhaps within shouting distance of Washington himself.


I know a lot of people will think that is nuts, but he is finishing what they started.

Or at least getting us back on track again.

Much of what he is doing is patching up The Constitution that has been damaged over the years and decades.

To be fair von Braum deserves much of the credit but he didn't set foot on the moon and is an ex ss nazi that stated totalitarianism was useful to get rocketry of the ground. He did, however, push not only the lunar but also a Martian landing to the public through Disney TV in 1957.

True.

But, it is not the mechanic that builds the race car that gets the accolades, it is the driver that is first to cross the finish line.
