People were more apt to believe it back then. If the government told you it was so then so it was. Can the current space program land men on the moon?

No, but that's actually a funding issue. During the 60's, 4 cents of every tax dollar went into the space program, and that was before the inflation ridden 70's so the dollar was worth more.
Today 1 cent of every tax dollar goes to the space program. And the dollar is worth less than it was then.
