Nice work Gerry, you have opened a can of worms here depending on who you ask.... and im sure all you baby boomers will come forward with an answer one way or another.
I do have a few questions though... generation X and Y please feel free to add..
were the yanks the first on the moon in 69? if so why have they never been back?
who put the camera on the moon to take the pics of Neil Armstrong decending from the shuttle?
why was the American flag blowing in the breeze when there is supposedly no atmospheric pressure in space?
please enlighten me

)The flag looks like it was blowing because it was folded in a tube for transportation (hence a little crumpled) and there was a small telescopic tube along the top which didn't open properly.
The camera was remote controlled and set up from the lunar module before Armstrong descended the ladder.
There were 5(?) other moon missions after Armstrongs in which a US astronaut landed on the moon, so they have been back.
I'm pretty sure they're the right answers. [bc]

So they have got good use and value for money out of that set [crackup]
Whether Armstrong got out onto the moon or not, what we saw on TV in 1969 was done in a studio, it is that obvious.
And to be fair, just say the worst happened( if they were to get out onto the moon) like the pressure pulled the astronaught appart or the sun fried him in 10 seconds, or little green men came out of nowhere and shot him with a laser, they couldn't take that risk of showing the world that event live anyway.
Back in '69, we all imagined that we'd be taking holidays at a lunar resort and floating around in lo-grav suits by the year 2000, yep the seppo's had us all fooled.[sa]
