Why Hawaii? There's places right here in the States or in Alaska that are desolate and a lot closer to the cold on Mars. Sounds like someone wants an expense paid vacation.

The mineral riches alone of mars are SO extensive as to make the Earth look like a failed old girl scout. Bet the USA will use all countries involved in research to Mars and who get left behind when rights to the planet get established in America's favor VIA the UN. Trust me, Al Quaeda is already on Mars and stealing gold ore as we speak!~

The americans in fact did land on the moon. Why I think its the truth is because of one fact alone:

The russians and Chinese tracked the apollo and didnt let it get out of sight so if the americans were fooling everyone the russians and Chinese wouldve undoubtedly told us so.....

This sounds like another Monsanto experiment for the use of GMOs launched from their Hawaiian expiriementation lot.

@eurasion
The fact that Russian is now accepted as the international Space language has nothing to do with America landing on the moon. 
It is because currently Russia has the only means of travelling to space via the Soyuz rocket and anyone who wants to be an astronaut knows that they will need to understand Russian in order to operate their rocket.
When Nasa's new long range space craft is finished their astronauts will no longer solely (if at all) speak Russian in space, they will return to English.
It will be good to see where you are finding this 'proof' that is on the Net?
From reading other articles on RT it seems you have loads of idea's and proof of what you say but come up shy when asked to prove it.

@eurasian ,
Please keep your conspiracy theories to yourself. These stories were fun in the 70's, 80's, 90's when the technology wasnt around to disprove these theories.
With modern technology there are pictures that capture evidence on the moon that America did land there. You can see foot prints, tyre tracks and equipment that has been left behind.
To still not believe that they landed there just shows the blinded and short sightedness of some people... get over it. America got there first. __________ ____________________ ____________________ _______ re: Oooo sweetheart You have NO IDEA what I have seen on the net as proof the Americans have NEVER been there. All the LIES mumbo-jumbo was about - we cannot accept be beaten by the Soviets --- get over it, swallow it down your chest and leave it to rest --- WHY DO you think the Russian language IS accepted as the space international language and not the English/American - the Americans, apropos, are so stupid to believe English is a foreign language to them?

Missions to Mars are a waste of money.  You will never be allowed to live on Mars nor destroy the coming of its return to life as we glimpse it, independently of every other population on every other heavenly body in the entire universe.   Only the moon belongs rightfully to the evolution of the earth, for it is the fact that the moon is the temporary consolidation of earthly matter, in dharma, which will definitely return to earth and make it look like jupiter for ages until its volition establishes hues of our own races in dominant variations just as it has in our own temporal order.   Potentially Races we have not yet seen in the earth, entire distributions of hue.To believe that just because noone has been in such a stage of war against the Vaults of Hell as to thoroughly control all events of the earths' history, means that you can naturally get away with colonising Mars, is infantile aboriginality and the mentality of determinism unhinged completely.   As idiotic as believing that resurrection is not technological, as idiotic as believing that there is anything natural or economically efficient in the lottery style of life non-resurrectionism is for mankind.

. I know for a fact NASA has been researching the old quarantine procedures used during the early days of Apollo for upcoming Mars missions. Mars may not be as sterile as the moon. .

“The site for the experiment has not been chosen yet, but Hawaii has enough visually isolated Mars-like stark locations low in vegetation.” - I still wonder did they made their moon-landing there, in Chilli or in Iceland, those all of the three have the same volcanic characteristic landscape. They [the cappies] couldn’t accept be beaten by Russia in the space race - and they are notoriously known to get to any length but just to take the credits of a victor.
