    I don’t think you’re educated on the matter because landing on the moon with the mission plan that they set out requires the lunar gateway to be in place which it is not and likely won’t be for a long time. It was going to be impossible to land on the moon by the third mission no matter who was in charge.

    You shouldn’t confidently spout incorrect information

      Like all ambitious space missions in history, it will be delayed, delayed, and delayed again. Sadly that’s how it has always been.

      Unless I’m grossly mistaken, Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo were pretty much on schedule. I don’t know about Skylab, if we consider it separate from Apollo. I think things started to become less tight with STS (Shuttle).

        You could be right. I have not been alive that long and I must admit I’m not super educated on the exact timelines of many older programs. But in my lifetime, all the exciting programs have been delayed by a lot.

        I guess I confidently spouted some incorrect information if you were right.
