It was no accident that Nasa crashed one of its Apollo 16 rocket boosters onto the moon, but the researchers never intended to lose it.
In April of 1972, the booster drifted off and was never seen again, unable to transmit tracking data and reveal its whereabouts because of a malfunction.
Now, almost 44 years later, the crash site of the Saturn V stage-three booster has finally been located.

WE should be making regular trips to the moon.. That we have not IS due to a lack of commitment to blowing this joint before Niburu returns. 8-0

Take that all you Moon Landing Deniers. The booster is not the lander.

And to think in the past most people thought the Earth was flat and everything spun around it.
Science is reality.

I’m just waiting for the reports that the booster was lost due to climate change. Then it was subjected to all types of alien experiments which caused them to become refugees (due to the effects of climate change on the booster). Therefore, we have to bring them to earth and give them a place to stay./s

The U.S. government is so determined to maintain that the moon landings were real and not staged, that they have gone through the trouble of intentionally crashing a rocket booster on the moon’s surface in order to perpetuate the ruse.
