I am not sure they were real.I have my doubts based on a few simple assumptions.I have studied the USA?s way of manipulating the masses for the last 20 years(the best) I found it hard to believe they realy wanted to go to the moon.Kennedy was desperate after falling behind in the cold war(propaganda) and more important Kennedy needed to win the elections and that was not going to be easy with Vietnam at its peak.This does not prove anything but it is the real reason wy this project started and I think it should be kept in mind throughout.There was so much at stake.Here is what I have a problem with.
