What if man hadn’t arrived
to the moon!!!
Yesterday I was reading
about this great event and like other times my head began searching for
different consequences if this hadn’t happened.
This “Essay Draft” contains
my thoughts. Maybe, humanity wouldn’t have spent a lot of money on later
spacemissions and the money could have been used for food and welfare or for
children.
What’s more could it have
been given o scientists for development, new vaccines o to explore our world
more.
On the other hand, currently
some people wouldn’t have thought that the Apollo XI flight was a farce,
because the picture analysis later showed some light positions were mistakes.
Also a United States flag was moving as if the moon contained air and other
mistakes show two possible scenarios, firstly, it was all falsified, designed
in a Hollywood stage, or NASA was hiding something. Ummm, it is a big mystery.
On 20th July/1969
Apolo XI with Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin arrived on the Moon, Armstrong
said his famous and manipuled phrase: That’s
one small step for “a” man, one giant step for mankind.
True or not, it was
definitely an amazing event in human history. 45 years ago anybody would have
thought that this was a “Suicide Mission” especially after Layka “The Astronaut
Dog” died.
Other possible consequences
could have been that the Russians would have had the first man on the Moon.
These countries were in a nuclear race and in the “Cold War” with the USA.
This great event put ahead
the United States in the competition, also nobody would have recognized the
name of “Neil Armstrong”. USA citizens would haven’t possibly its trust in the
USA government despite the Vietnam War.
Finally, it’s likely we will
never know the truth: did Man really land on the Moon or is it a half truth, if
the “Sea of Tranquility” exist, but for all the “Earths citizens” it will
always be a great event.
