And the British empire was shit compared to the American empire. They’ve never even been to the moon.

The moon? What a waste of money that expedition was. You didn’t even come back with a turtle or a even a cool fern.
Good luck setting up some trade between the moon. Worse idea than when the Americans tried to colonise Brazil to make cars.
It’s just barren desolate rock, at least Australia got Kanagroos and sheep can live there. You need to up your desolate findings.

It was a military demonstration. Imagine if the British Empire had shot a musket ball from England to France and shot a hole right through Napoleon’s hat, then somehow caused the musket ball to return to England.
Any country that can land on the moon can direct a ballistic missile anywhere it wants.

I think it was far more political at that point. Simple orbital rocketry like sputnik, or Gargin is all that is needed to prove you can direct a ballistic missle anywhere. That’s what scared the shit out of the Americans and they needed to do the same. Apollo was all for show, pure politics.
