  1. Less likely to beleive Humans will survive on the Moon,Mostly made out of Rock and dust,Some parts of the Moon be very cold,Colder than what we get on Earth,Other parts of the Moon be boiling hot,More hotter than hot weather get on earth,Hot enough to melt led or hotter to melt rocks together,Not really right sort of temperatures to support life

  2. Aliens. All of these missions are photographing alien buildings on the far side of the moon. We are not welcome on the moon. Wait for the ‘malfunctions’. They photoshopped everything out and release to the public … not thinking that there would be digital graphics experts able to tell? Why would they photoshop thousands of photographs?
