The original footage of the Apollo 11 moon landing has been erased? Where do they get that?

The US Government never, ever destroys anything. All photos, texts, films, audios, written correspondence are tucked away SOMEWHERE.

An attempt to discredit our epic journey to the moon, methinks. Interesting that Ted Cruz heads up the Space Committee; will be waiting for his or NASA’s response.

You know that same government shredded and destroyed the blueprints for the Saturn 5 rocket motors, right? And destroyed all the toolings for making them? And that's why they weren't available for the space shuttle, or for now?

You didn't know that? About the most powerful rocket engines ever created? That sent us to the moon? That could provide all the LEO heavy lift capabilities we'd need? That they were simply thrown away, with no explanation?

Bummer.

And, all the engineers who designed and built the Saturn 5 rocket are in their mid to late 80’s or dead. A relative who worked on the team that designed the Saturn 5 steering would be 86 if he were still alive.
