Lately you only have to walk around cyberspace to realize the enormous number of web pages that speak and even try to convince readers that America has never reached the moon and, the truth, news like this does not help either.
Personally, what was written above is the first thing that comes to mind after reading the latest news published by NASA where it talks about how the United States Space Agency is willing to send a manned mission to the Moon, as long as get help from Russia.
NASA hopes that Russia will be an active part in the project to create a Space Station on the Moon
The objective of this mission is none other than establish a Space Station in the vicinity of the satellite And for this NASA wants that, as happened with the creation of the International Space Station, Russia is an active part and a close collaborator in the creation of this new base.
For NASA, the objective of creating this lunar base, as they have commented, would be to have a place from which to project future manned missions to Mars and for that, first of all, they need to start practicing on the satellite that we already know. As a detail, due to the immense costs involved in a mission like this, collaborators are being sought in the private sector from both the United States and Russia.
