Returning to the Moon: Why It’s Harder Than You Think

⁣In 1969, humans walked on the Moon.
So why, more than fifty years later, is returning proving so difficult?
In this episode of DarkHarbour Knowledge, we examine the real reasons behind the long gap between the historic Apollo program and today’s ambitious Artemis program.
Is it technology?

Funding?

Politics?

Or something deeper?
We explore:
• What made the Apollo missions possible

• Why the Saturn V no longer flies

• How Cold War urgency shaped space exploration

• Why modern safety standards slow progress

• The challenge of building a permanent lunar presence
Returning to the Moon isn’t just about rockets.
It’s about economics, geopolitics, engineering, and ambition.
The Moon never moved.

So what changed?
