While the US did go to the moon 50+ years ago, keep in mind that this was so long ago that most of this planet's current population wasn't born yet... for most of us, it's a bit of history you hear about from your parents or from history documentaries.

So at this point, dismissing Chinese ambitions with "we did that fifty years ago" is more of a "look how far we've fallen" than a "look how far behind us they are". (sim) #ApolloProgram

The model was scaled to the Monogram First Lunar Landing model kit, because I happened to have one of the astronaut figures from that laying around. It would have been VERY small, like mini-van sized probably. I was comparing it to narrow-gauge logging and agricultural railroads here on Earth, where things are scaled down. I designed a locomotive and passenger cars too, on paper, but never built them.

One of only three Saturn V rockets left in the world, this one is on display in the Saturn V Hall of the Davidson Center for Space Exploration in Huntsville, AL.

And it is massive.
