My trick for successful landing the CDC Cyber/6000
series lunar lander
version was to set the initial height above the moon's surface to the
minimum height of 1' and then let it drop. I never successful landed from
the default height above the surface. It was seriously difficult.
Is that why people don't go to the moon very often, any more? :-)
