Just accept that we went to the Moon because it darn well happened!
You do realize that material characteristics/craft design tolerances differ somewhat regarding a vacuum environment and the fact that our moon has only 5/6 the gravity of Earth as apposed to a craft designed to function in an atmosphere and under Earth gravity?

You guys are cracking me up. Why is everyone taking is so personal that he doesn't think it went to the moon or wouldn't get in it? Who cares!
I would personally get in it haha, I think the view and the experience would be something you would never forget.

The view would be spectacular.
But this egg box didn't even lift off the ground.
Am I the only one that can see the aluminium foil and wrapping paper it is made of?
Look at the legs of the thing.
It looks like what you put around pipes to lag them.

Do you think your view, what you presented today, is in any way fresh or new or even interesting?
Would anyone really get in this Apollo 11 Lander if was told it goes to the moon?
I wouldn't. I would laugh and say;
"It looks like it is made of card, left over Christmas wrapping paper and egg cartons".

If this was a vehicle that needed to operate in Earth's atmosphere, and be subjected to the forces of atmospheric drag, then the insulating material would have an outer skin (i.e., a craft operating in Earth's atmosphere would have the substructure, insulation, then a smooth outer skin).
However, considering this LM only needed to operate in the vacuum of space and no where else, then they could eliminate the outer skin, thus saving quiet a bit of weight -- and every pound and every ounce that they saved was very important because of fuel consumption.
You should for once if you own a car strip your doors down until nothing is left and all inside lining striped away.

It would seem it has interested you enough to reply?

Here is a question. NASA 'sent a car to the moon'. A moon buggy.
But on mars they could only put a remote controlled 'car'. The Rover.
That looks nothing like this hunk of junk. Nor does the space shuttle.

I would put everything and more on betting that if you striped this 'thing' down.
It would be an empty box.
