Given the amount it would cost,I don 't see it taking off (literally).

[Baldric]

Any particular link out of the many on your second link we should look at Eddie?

[EDDIE51]

It's the 'lead' story click on it to see the whole thing.

[Baldric]

Ok, thanks,

What a strange way to give a link!

//The fitting way to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Moon landing would be to return to the Moon not to re-enact Apollo 11, but in a fashion that demonstrates 50 years of progress and points to the potential of what can be achieved in the next 50.//

It's from 'Universe Today' a free service that goes into your email .
I've used it for years . You can get links to NASA TV with live rocket launches.

Bit late isn't it?

Or are they sending Trump on a one-way visit to visit the Big Man up there?

[Baldric]

But can't link directly to one story?

[EDDIE51]

Your link is from 2014 Togo. It mentions that a new president will be in power by the launch date. Trump has asked NASA to look at this possibility to achieve it. As far as I can see this will be a mission to a Moon orbit from where it can study the 'dark side' of the Moon which is virtually unknown at present.

[EDDIE51]

Baldric, I have had the same problem posting links to Universe Today previously, it goes to one days edition but has all the stories on it.
I suppose I could copy and paste the whole story if necessary.

[Togo]

Haha Eddie at least my "old" link works. Bet the old rockets would work better as well. You know the ones that were made before the ecomentalists got their sweaty palms on the levers. The hot air and vitriol being generated aint gonna get a payload in orbit. :))

[Togo]

Oh Eddie.,will have a look at "Universe Today"... tomorrow. Interested.

[EDDIE51]

Thanks Baldric, I must have 'pushed the wrong button'!
