Not much else, tbh. It's certainly in the realm of possiblity.
The physics check passes. I'm no genius, but i've fucked with rockets, ballistics, and kerbal enough to feel like that all part is certainly doable with all our eye-witnessable undeniable LEO tech. We've also at the very least landed unmanned craft with reflectors on the moon.
And I know I know, They obviously bullshitted hard with agitprop and fake moon rocks. I'd even say they probably bullshitted some of the footage in a (((studio))). That's just what cold war warfare ops and geopolitics were at the time, imo.
The biggest issue to me at this point is why no one has gone back since to attempt colonization? I still think we've landed there, and you can't deny that anyone going back to the moon is basically a completely fruitless moneypit, until self-sustaining colonies can be established their, or it can be mined.

I sincerely believe you don't understand what you just said there. Especially since it's almost impossible to have this discussion without the most obvious answers always coming out.
A lunar colony serves so purpose other than a money pit unless there is profit to be had. Without the technology to spring board deeper into the solar system, no such profit exist. You even imply you know this is the correct answer. You just argued against yourself to invlidate the entire talking point.
It's almost as if you can't parse stream of thought. Or logic. Or words.
Some people can't be saved.
