Hi Steve,
Well that's another subject, but if I may interject a bit.
NASA's Smoking Gun, Part II, LCROSS' (and LRO's) Secret NASA Mission to the Moon ....
I suspect you'll disagree with a lot of that information there, but consider the conclusion, and note the interesting parts where Hoagland mentions all the international space agencies, which include Japan, China, Russia, etc.
All these space agencies are spending hundreds of millions, for what, rock samples? No, more likely a high tech continuous
surveillance (note; Lunar
Reconnaissance Orbiter) of ancient ruins and structures, particularly using radar to penetrate the surface and see with the newest equipment whats down there.
Its also more likely that the other countries like Japan are working in conjuction with NASA, joint secrecy, not difficult in the least.
Just my opinion though.
Cheers,
