Isn't it funny that it is always people like us who talk about the controversy of the moon landing. If there was any serious doubt then don't you think the Russians would have said something.
As far as the escape velocities are concerned,
-----------------
Moon 2.38 km/s
Earth 11.2 km/s
-----------------
I don't know about the size of the rockets. But haven't you ever heard the phrase "It's not the size of the rocket, it's how you use it". <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
Now this is not the end. This is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning. --Winston Churchill
