Yes, of course, but your comment is quite off-topic. We were talking specifically about the moon program. Obviously, launch & orbital vehicles are critical dual-use civilian/military technologies (space exploration & delivering ICBMs). In contrast, visits to the moon are not (at least for the near & intermediate future) dual-use civ/mil technologies. Nixon killed the moon program when he got into office, and it is very unlikely he would have started one had he won in 1960.
