the apollo program had 5 crewed flights, two of which went to the moon without landing. after 50 years of not going there, it is exciting that something is happening. i don't actually care about landing on the moon. i care about what is being tested and learned from these flights, whether they do land on the moon or not.

the moonlanding better be a test for base building for example and not just collecting samples. we can do that with robots already.
