There has been no reason to.........but there are plans to commence the lunar project, as they require a vehicle to launch the Mars mission.........watch this space...... -

Samples returned Main article: Moon rock Lunar MissionSample ReturnedRepresentative SampleApollo 1122 kgApollo 1234 kgApollo 1443 kgApollo 1577 kg The most famous of the Moon rocks recovered, the Genesis Rock, was discovered and returned from the Apollo 15 mission. Apollo 1695 kg Ferroan Anorthosite moon rock, collected by Apollo 16. The only sources of moon rocks on Earth are those collected from the Apollo program, the former Soviet Union's Luna missions, and lunar meteorites. Future missions manned or unmanned would provide the opportunity to collect more. Apollo 17111 kg The Apollo program returned 381.7 kg (841.5 lb) of rocks and other material from the Moon, much of which is stored at the Lunar Receiving Laboratory in Houston. In general the rocks collected from the Moon are extremely old compared to rocks found on Earth, as measured by radiometric dating techniques. They range in age from about 3.2 billion years old for the basaltic samples derived from the lunar mare, to about 4.6 billion years for samples derived from the highlands crust.[31] As such, they represent samples from a very early period in the development of the Solar System that is largely missing from Earth. One important rock found during the Apollo Program was the Genesis Rock, retrieved by astronauts James Irwin and David Scott during the Apollo 15 mission. This rock, called anorthosite, is composed almost exclusively of the calcium-rich feldspar mineral anorthite, and is believed to be representative of the highland crust. A geochemical component called KREEP was discovered that has no known terrestrial counterpart. Together, KREEP and the anorthositic samples have been used to infer that the outer portion of the Moon was once completely molten (see lunar magma ocean). Almost all of the rocks show evidence for having been affected by impact processes. For instance, many samples appear to be pitted with micrometeoroid impact craters, something which is never seen on earth due to its thick atmosphere. Additionally, many show signs of being subjected to high pressure shock waves that are generated during impact events. Some of the returned samples are of impact melt, referring to materials that are melted in the vicinity of an impact crater. Finally, all samples returned from the Moon are highly brecciated as a result of being subjected to multiple impact events. Analysis of composition of the lunar samples support the giant impact hypothesis, that the Moon was created through a "giant impact" of a large astronomical body with the Earth.[32] -

Surely we did!!!!!!!!!!! Manned missions This image shows Apollo 11 astronaut Buzz Aldrin with the U.S. flag. The illusion of a breeze was caused by the horizontal rod intended to hold the flag flat failing to telescope out completely, thus leaving ripples in the fabric like those seen in a flag in the wind. On each manned mission there were three astronauts: a commander, a command module pilot (CMP), and a lunar module pilot (LMP). In the case of a moon landing the commander and the LMP descended to the Moon, while the CMP remained in lunar orbit. Apollo 7, launched on October 11, 1968, was the first manned mission in the Apollo program. It was an eleven-day Earth-orbital mission intended to test the redesigned command module. It was the first manned launch of the Saturn IB launch vehicle, and the first three-man American space mission. A mounted camera captures Neil Armstrong as he becomes the first human to step on the moon. By the summer of 1968 it became clear to program managers that a fully functional LM would not be available for the Apollo 8 mission. Rather than perform a simple earth orbiting mission, they chose to send Apollo 8 around the moon during Christmas. The original idea for this switch was the brainchild of George Low. Although it has often been claimed that this change was made as a direct response to Soviet attempts to fly a piloted Zond spacecraft around the moon, there is no evidence that this was actually the case. NASA officials were aware of the Soviet Zond flights, but the timing of the Zond missions does not correspond well with the extensive written record from NASA about the Apollo 8 decision. It is relatively certain that the Apollo 8 decision was primarily based upon the LM schedule, rather than fear of the Soviets beating the Americans to the moon. Between December 21, 1968 and May 18, 1969, NASA launched three Apollo missions (8, 9, and 10) using the Saturn V launch vehicle. Each mission had a crew of three astronauts, and the last two included Lunar Modules, but none of these were intended as Moon landing missions. “That's one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind.” — Neil Armstrong[29] Astronaut Harrison H. Schmitt, December 13, 1972. This image was taken during the Apollo 17 mission, the last human lunar landing to date. The next two flights (11 and 12) included successful Moon landings. The Apollo 13 mission was aborted before the landing attempt, but the crew returned safely to Earth. The four subsequent Apollo missions (14 through 17) included successful Moon landings. The last three of these were J-class missions that included the use of Lunar Rovers. Apollo 17, launched December 7, 1972, was the last Apollo mission to the moon. Mission commander Eugene Cernan was the last person to leave the Moon's surface. The crew returned safely to Earth on December 19, 1972. -
I'll finish it off for you..........relegated us twice, took us from a much respected club to a laughing stock. Went through managers like they were going out of fashion, paying compensation along the way. Got rid of our best players by showing no ambition. Divided the fan base to an extent, that may never recover............lastly, almost cost the city the ignomy, of not having a profesional football team. Red and White Army.........you sound more like NC's sidekick.

Well Ponty..........I wouldn't expect you to believe anything I post:-#...but it wasn't just NASA involved.......there was tracking stations all over the world watching events unfold....both telescopic and radio, you can't fake something like that in public IMO. If this was fake.............someone would have broke cover by now....once again, it is just stupid people who won't believe the evidence that is presented....these are the same people, who claim the twin towers never happened, or was destroyed by the US government. -
Pre Pardew..............wonder if he will bring in his own man??

Suggest you have another look at the photo's........they were talking this morning, to a guy from an English tracking station re moon landing. Now here's the problem..........thousands of people around the world were involved in this, one way or another.........surely one would of come out with proof it was fake by now...they haven't.......so it happened, get over it. -
And certainly not playing 8 a side................
-
Minority..........you are out on your own pal. How you claim to love the club, is beyond me, as all you ever do on here is run it down, that and those within. You defend Stewpert to the hilt, but fail to see the damage he caused............You want to try waking up in the morning thinking nice thoughts, then maybe, just maybe, you won't be so despised on here.....you're almost in the 100% club, if it wasn't for nickh/AP and one or two others, you'd be there for sure.
-
Well said..........my thoughts exactly.
-
Mack rill...that's how I see it.....you are down even if Dr No takes you over. The up side is, that by binning these players, you may be/have paid of your debt, therefore making you sellable. I would like to see you taken down a peg or two, but like Many other Saints fans I know, I wouldn't wish for you to not exist. Banter is one thing........reality is another.

Another negative post Art!!!!!!!..........there won't be a director of football, that was only going to happen with a younger manager!!
-
Speculator.............posting on here;)

Lol.......we're paying for it, they just raise the price of oil a few pence...we're all shareholders in City:rolleyes:

I suggest you re-examine the photo...........you are so wrong.

0-8:(:(

You must go back..........they're looking for you, that padded cell wasn't that bad....now was it?? You must be one on the Dumbest/Controversial/divisive/antagonistic/youngest posters on here...take your pick!!!

Midtable-head..............Playoffs-heart.

He wasn't that serious......... Original quote:- alan pardew? is in the running for the yeovil job....could he do a good job for us? imo yeovil seems a bit below his level tbh i would like to think he could be a decent manager for us but what do i know.

Posts: 2,109 This appointment is proof that the ambitions of the Swiss are average at best. It wouldn't be my choice but now he is here I hope that the owners back him financially otherwise we will just become an average L1 team.
