Well, predictable in the sense that they would either reach the Moon and come back, or reach the Moon and die trying to come back, or reach the Moon and die there, or die along the way to the Moon, or explode in the air, or explode on the ground.
Which is kind of funny because the original moonshot was a rather predictable thing (build bigger rockets until one is big enough) and success only meant that you could stop spending billions.
