If man really landed on moon, why there's no any such missions after1969

I'm not saying this. Some Moslem challenged me on this.

Many people and websites, both - American and Islamic claim that that 1969 landing pictures were farce and they even show detailed evidence in support which actually SEEM to be quite impressive.

Main point is - what should I tell this guy about his comment? Why no such missions after 1969? Was it unimportant to do so since then...why would such an important exploration (manned exploration of moon's surface) turn a bit unimportant afterwards? We can't say that USA and USSR lacked money or resources. At the same time we can't say USA and USSR schemed with each other on this cuz we know both were unrelenting enemies.

>>If man really landed on the moon, why's there no any such missions since 1969?<<

There were SIX missions between 1969 and 1972 that landed on the Moon.


>>I'm not saying this.<<

So what is the purpose of this question? Are you looking for ways to refute him, or are you unsure yourself?


>> Some Moslem challenged me on this. <<

It's "Muslim" ("Moslem" is often seen as derogatory by many people, as explained here: http://hnn.us/articles/524.html). Why does his religion matter anyway?



>>Many people and websites, both - American and Islamic claim that that 1969 landing pictures were farce and they even show detailed evidence in support which actually SEEM to be quite impressive. <<

If you don't apply any critical thinking skills, maybe. Again, I'm not sure why religion is coming into it.



>>Main point is - what should I tell this guy about his comment? <<

That he is a fool.


>>Why no such missions after 1969?<<

Again, this is completely untrue. There were five more missions after the first in 1969. The last was December 1972.
