While there is debate about the US moon mission in 1969, it does seem to be fairly universally agreed the Russians had the first moon landing in 1959,

“there is debate about the US moon mission in 1969”
There is no debate. Quit gas lighting.
“Quit gas lighting..”
Pot, kettle..
What actual ‘debate’ is there about the 1969 Apollo mission? Is it like the ‘debate’ about the earth being a sphere or the ‘debate’ about Elvis being alive still?
All the footage, data, reports and anecdotes ingested last week indicated no debate. Perhaps it only exists on the dark side with Elvis and Prince Philip.
There looks to be a debate on the Saturday Papers comments…..
Anyway, my main point is, it’s 60 years since the “First Moon Landing” not 50 as on the stamp above, and that’s a bigger cock-up than a mis-spelling.
“Debate” is over-selling it , but carry on
More pulling teeth tbh
My 8 year old nephew started full on arguing about this the other day, that the Russians were the first, 20 years before the Yanks. Where did he get this idea? Youtube. He was adamant that it happened. I nearly gave him a box.
Far be it from me to comment.
But what the heck.
Heh,heh,heh.
‘‘Twas the ‘hand-knitted computer code’ that did it.
A farce befitting a farce
Seems fair
