If they are feasible then everybody will be doing it soon.

Thing is, they aren’t and they won’t be.

Get ready for a bunch of “dog ate my homework” excuses for years and years and years.

We have had fifty plus years of them so far....

They’re feasible but they’re a waste of money.

China is getting ready to put a man on the moon. The US is considering a return.

Please provide a list for why this can't be done.

Do you believe there are no landers on Mars? No Saturn/Jupiter fly-bys?

cgbg, you haven’t been paying attention to SpaceX lately, have you?

They are getting things done that NASA never could do, and in 10% of the time. Why land a rocket and re-use it, when you can just get the taxpayers to buy you another one.

When it comes to [anything] the private sector does it faster and cheaper.

Elon Musk will have us back on the moon in a couple of years.
