NASA Astronaut Admits: 'We Don't Have The Technology To Go To The Moon'

American Astronaut Don Pettit says the US do not have the technology to go to moon anymore. According to Pettit NASA destroyed all the 1960s technology. This for many around the world is unbelievable. How can NASA destroy such technology? Technology that defined American scientific development. Another critical question is that; If we could do it in the 60s, why cant we do it now that science and technology has certainly improved. 

when we look at television, radio, cars, refrigerators, cell phones, computers etc how scientific world has innovated or improved these gadgets, it becomes harder to believe Don Pettit's claims. one will think that the technology that landed Armstrong and his team on the moon would have been kept, protected and improved. Its secrecy and importance would be classified as TOP SECRET and matter of National Security.

This development has left many conspiracy theorist who claim that NASA has never landed in the moon talking again. Some believe the moon landing footage was film at area 51 US top secret projects site. April 12 1961 the Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin becomes the first human being to travel into space. During the flight, the 27-year-old test pilot and industrial technician also became the first man to orbit the planet, a feat accomplished by his space capsule in 89 minutes. This was a great challenge to the US especially with the cold war going on. Putting a man in space and beyond became more important than ever, it was a matter of National pride to the politicians and scientist. so On May 5, 1961, Alan B. Shepard made it into space—and back—just 23 days after Russian cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin became the first human to do so. Less than a year later, John Glenn became the first American to orbit the Earth. By the last of the six Mercury missions, on May 15-16, 1963, Gordon Cooper circled the Earth 22 times—the equivalent of spending one full day in space.

On July 16, 1969 Apollo 11's landed two men on the moon. Neil Armstrong, Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin and Michael Collins were the astronauts on Apollo 11. This achievement placed United State Of America in the highest level of space technology and scientific development. they have made it! the Soviet has been beaten. 

             

the moon landing footage raised many questions from conspiracy theorist. They claim that some or all elements of the Apollo program and the associated Moon landings were hoaxes staged by NASA, possibly with the aid of other organizations. The most notable claim is that the six manned landings (1969–72) were faked and that 12 Apollo astronauts did not actually walk on the Moon. Various groups and individuals have made claims since the mid-1970s, that NASA and others knowingly misled the public into believing the landings happened, by manufacturing, tampering with, or destroying evidence including photos, telemetry tapes, radio and TV transmissions, Moon rock samples, and even killing some key witnesses.

Much third-party evidence for the landings exists, and detailed rebuttals to the hoax claims have been made. Since the late 2000s, high-definition photos taken by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) of the Apollo landing sites have captured the lander modules and the tracks left by the astronauts.In 2012, images were released showing five of the six Apollo missions' American flags erected on the Moonstill standing; the exception is that of Apollo 11, which has lain on the lunar surface since being accidentally blown over by the takeoff rocket's exhaust.

Conspiracists have managed to sustain public interest in their theories for more than 40 years, despite the rebuttals and third-party evidence. Opinion polls taken in various locations have shown that between 6% and 20% of Americans, 25% of Britons, and 28% of Russians surveyed believe that the manned landings were faked. Even as late as 2001, the Fox television network documentary Conspiracy Theory: Did We Land on the Moon? claimed NASA faked the first landing in 1969 to win the Space Race.

Some of the most popular conspiracy theories about NASA moon landing in 1969 are; 

1. The astronauts could not have survived the trip because of exposure to radiation from the Van Allen radiation belt and galactic ambient radiation (see radiation poisoning and health threat from cosmic rays). Some conspiracists have suggested that Starfish Prime (a high-altitude nuclear test in 1962) was a failed attempt to disrupt the Van Allen belts.
2. Film in the cameras would have been fogged by this radiation.
3. The Moon's surface during the daytime is so hot that camera film would have melted.
4. The Apollo 16 crew could not have survived a big solar flare firing out when they were on their way  to the Moon.
5. he flag placed on the surface by the astronauts fluttered despite there being no wind on the Moon. This suggests that it was filmed on Earth and a breeze caused the flag to flutter. Sibrel said that it may have been caused by indoor fans used to cool the astronauts since their spacesuit cooling systems would have been too heavy on Earth.
6. Footprints in the Moon dust are unexpectedly well preserved, despite the lack of moisture.
7.  The alleged Moon landings used either a sound stage or were filmed outside in a remote desert with the astronauts either using harnesses or slow-motion photography to make it look like they were on the Moon.

There has always been suspicions and conspiracy theories about NASA moon landing Footage in 1969 and they don't seem to be going away anytime sooner after claims by Don Pittit that NASA has don't have the technology to go to the moon anymore because the 1969 technology has been destroyed which i think is pretty shocking and unbelievable. Maybe the conspiracies are false maybe Armstrong and his team truly landed on the moon. But i think someone have some serious explanation to do. How was it possible to put men on the moon in 1969 and not be able to do so in 2018? and why was the technology destroyed? 
what do you think? did NASA really land man on the moon in 1969 or ever?
or was it a means of wining the SPACE RACE as many call it?
will really appreciate your commend on this.
