You see, when they launch a new series of moon missions, you have to come up with a new story than "NASA says they don't know how to get to the moon." And I know the video you are talking about too.
Do you have any other objects in the photo to demonstrate that the Earth is relatively smaller than it should be? It looks fucking huge in that photo. Did you know that the moon is only the size of a pea held at arm's length from our perspective? The Earth in that pic looks like a bowling ball.
I'm telling you what NASA stated when asked why they hadn't gone back to the moon since the 70s. The response was that they destroyed the technology and would have to rebuild everything from scratch and that it would be simpler to land on Mars.
It's simple, seeing the moon from the earth, you know its size... the earth is supposed to be 4 times bigger, from a roughly equivalent distance which means it should occupy 4x the area of the sky, not of a relatively comparable amount of sky as the moon occupies.
Again I know what you are talking about and again you misinterpret what was said.
If they lost the technology for the Saturn V then how come we still used it for years after the moon landings were completed? If they lost the technology for the Apollo CSM then again how come we used it for years afterwards?
You again overestimate how large The Moon appears on Earth and completely misunderstand how it should appear. The Earth is 4x larger but appears 13x larger from the surface of The Moon, and if they were "the same size" and The Moon looked that humongous standing on Earth I would be worried for sure.
The Moon only appears large while it is actually pea sized just like the Earth appears pea sized to you but is closer to a bocce ball (the large ones) in real life as well as in that picture you keep bringing up.
