Russia space agency chief: We’ll verify US moon landings

[nir]

The head of Russia’s Roscosmos space agency has said that a proposed Russian mission to the moon will be tasked with verifying that the American moon landings were real.

 

“We have set this objective to fly and verify whether they’ve been there or not,” said Dmitry Rogozin in a video posted Saturday on Twitter.

 

Rogozin was responding to a question about whether or not NASA actually landed on the moon nearly 50 years ago. He appeared to be joking, as he smirked and shrugged while answering. But conspiracies surrounding NASA’s moon missions are common in Russia.

 

The Soviet Union abandoned its lunar program in the mid-1970s after four experimental moon rockets exploded.

 

In 2015, a former spokesman for the Russian Investigative Committee called for an investigation into NASA moon landings.

conspiracies surrounding NASA’s moon missions are common in USA and elsewhere too. Now we are to believe that the Russians will go?

Nothing will convince real flat-earthers! Not even mounting them on a space vehicle and showing them Earth from the space. As for the conspiratorial theory about NASA never having been on the Moon. I understand that currently 60s and 70s landing spots can be visualized with telescopes but again, hardcore believers of this theory won't accept those facts!

The point is not to "put a man on the Moon" but make commercial travel to the Moon economically feasible.  So, it should produce some other "benefits" apart of displaying a flag, making some videos, bragging about being on the Moon and bringing back some stones.
