There are some of us old enough to have watched the news 40 years ago and judge accordingly. The opinion of many was that the Americans couldn,t take off and land successfully from earth, without using parachutes, so to take off from earth, land on the moon and then take off again was way beyond their capabilities. Of course we all wanted it to be true, it just didn,t make sense.
