Default NASA's long-running 'Cover Story' Comes to an End!

The manned space program is, and always has been, a military oriented
program. The civilian cover stories of the early rocket days became
institutionalized.


This is absolutely false.



Oh come on, both the US and China have at times used H3
as their 'cover stories' just recently for going to the Moon.
You can't see through the propaganda? NASA has floated
just about every reason it can think of to justify the
Moon, they were all attempts at cover stories, civilian
justifications for a military project.

Anytime a reason for doing something is created /after the fact/
it's a false story. Why not just tell us the original reason they used
before the project began? Either they had a different reason
for going to the Moon, or none at all, which is worse?
