zahavasdad -“The Rambam holds that the moon is a spiritual place not a physical place so a landing was not possible.”
Source?
“Rav Yaakov Kamminetsky when the original moon landing occured rushed to watch it on TV as he wanted to know if the Rambam was right or wrong.”
That’s not what I heard. I heard he said that Pshat is noone can touch any heavenly objects. So how did man touch the moon? He answered- if you can only touch it with a spacesuit -this isn’t called touching.
