Is moon a heavenly planet according to Srimad Bhagavatam? What have the Acaryas said about this?

 

I thought you couldn't just go to heavenly planets using space ships. But it was done. How?

If ever and where ever they went it certainly wasn't heaven. One can easily see that the ancient view of the Moon as the second most luminous body in the sky would be considered a heavenly planet.

 

What we see of the moon even from ordinary telescopes shows it is not a heaven unless if one were a dust mite or something. Some reply to this that the actual Moon is subtle in nature and we don't have the eyes to see the truth of it.

 

To me it is another 'Who Cares?'

 

Devotees of Krsna will not be disturbed with this either way as they are not interested in material heaven anyway.

 

Sure is beautiful though as it reflects Krsna in His light manifestation.
