Wonder what the LM lower stages condition is ??
Did nasa ever state what would happen to the lower stage left on the
moon?? If the hydrazine fuels leaked it could of caused a explosion. as far as I know orbital photos arent good enough for a definitive condition report...... just wondering what nasa expected to happen? another one would be snoopy which appeared to end up in heliospheric orbit...... or some left over 2nd stages that werent crashed into the moon with the fuels and batteries, and gases i wonder how these leftovers have aged........ wouldnt it be wonderful to retrieve some of these artifacts? |

Wonder what the LM lower stages condition is ??
archealogy is fine but tourism is a income generator...
now answer me this why all the excitement about the shuttles going to museums? they will be big tourism draws. now imagine here we have a flown snoopy lost in heliospheric orbit for 60 years.... although it did not land on the moon it was the first LM to orbit the moon and its testing allowed the later landing..... I am wondering if they even survived in pretty good shape without major damage from volatile explosions etc?? over here we have some fragments of the apollo 11 LM uper stage it crashed into the moon some months after the landing and its crash site was located and these fragments recovered by a rover that happened to spot it........ tourism is a major industry for our country |

Now look at the costs of recovery and try to make your books balance, Bobbert.... with apparent declining cost to orbit, and creative ways to return stuff from orbit, and the possiblity of a tug and or fuel depot such historic items may be recoverable, as part of a larger mission........ take snoopy, how much info is there on long term exposure to deep space? snoopy and some other artifacts could be studied and also exhibited most likely at KSC. or perhaps houston since it didnt get a shuttle............ tourism is far more than the direct cost of X people thru a museums turnstile........ its people traveling to the area, think air and ground travel, its food and lodging too....... |

According to all things NASA/Apollo, the moon is actually quite reflective, monochromatic and otherwise totally inert. So, everything should still be in 100% perfect condition. |

No. according to YOU, that's what NASA/Apollo is saying. The reality is otherwise but like most conspiracy nuts, your thoughts are not quite rooted in reality. |

Umm, no one has to fly to the Moon to retrieve a Space Shuttle. T.B. retrieving snoopy could be a non manned mission provided snoopy is in decent shape, but a manned mission would have pizaz, if done long with some other worthy activity. plus it would provide some real science about how such a artifact survives in deep space for 50 years. might be possible to recover snoopy while visiting a asteroid... |
