So, to set the matter straight, there were seventeen Apollo missions in all. The last where men landed on the moon and walked on the surface was December 19, 1972. So there were other landings after the "first" one.
But 1972??? Come on, NASA. Come on government. We were supposed to be living on the moon by now. Yes, I know, there are multiple missions to the space station and the shuttle has been doing great things.
But 1972???
Sigh.

Six new pages last night. Four more to go to meet my monthly goal. My reward will be uninterrupted reading of Harry. :)

Tips and Teasers: Pick one day of the week, i.e. Sunday, and write a paragraph or a page about that day. What do you commonly do on that day? Describe that typical day in detail. Be very specific. Now, put your current character in that day – how would he or she react differently than you?

There's no reason to go back! It's just a hunk of rock, and it's more cost-effective (relatively speaking) to do space stations. Easier to dock than to land/take off, right?
I know, with all this practicality, it's amazing that I write paranormal romance. :)
