I don’t just think we never landed on the moon, I believe that it is impossible to complete this mission today. Just the fuel required to make the trip, the massive shielding required to protect not just the astronauts and the LM as well as the tremendous stress that would occur to the craft in flight make the project look phony. Take a good look at the photos of the LM. If you say that it would be possible for this craft to travel at thousands of miles per hour, you are a fool. With loose panels, aluminum foil, and what looks like tent material; there is no way that thing successfully landed (6 times) on the moon- no way- I’m not buying it. Look at the ridiculous antenna setup on the top of the LM, the metal looks about as thick as a coat hanger. What about the fuel cell on the LM, where is it? There is no way you will ever convince me that there was enough space for a the fuel required to not only land on the moon, but to ascend as well.
I have a challenge for anyone who is willing to attempt it; build a replica or even a model and show us just the engine or booster. I guarantee that it is impossible to fit a 10,000 lb. per sq. ft. thruster into a compartment the size of the LM; let alone 3 men, a lunar rover, and the fuel cell to boot.
