How is that hard to read or understand?


Because if we didn't have a need for that stuff in a situation then we would never had to discover it. If you don't need a rocket then you aren't trying to develop a rocket. We didn't have a pressing need for that stuff so there wasn't a push to develop it.
Sometimes it takes stupid plan to make a brilliant discovery.


I love the rockets, and orbiting earth, and exploration,.. I'm just asking what beneficial were we looking to find on the moon? Or is the answer nothing, we were just trying to strut while beating the Russians.

The same as Mars. Let the Chinese waste money on Mars. If it's full of diamonds covered with crude oil and they find a way to extract them, I will apologize
