The moon lower gravity and lack of atmosphere would make a take off easier, but what I am wondering is that this was the first attempt, and they got it right. I mean, we are talking about landing on a big rock thats in motion and whos surface is littered with craters. Im not an engineer, I know, but it just seems to me like this
journey would take a lot more research than what was available in 1969.
It's basic physics. I could do it with the right data (not really).


Don't forget this is all in good fun!
