Do you believe about Apollo moon landing in 1969 ?

Don't diss the Apollo missions. Without them we wouldn't have had awesome food items like 'Tang' and 'Space food Sticks' - lol
Now, how many here are old enough to remember those?

raises hand, but secretly wants Fizzies back instead.

I had nothing to do today. I have nothing to contribute that is pertinent to the OP.

But I do have THIS!

You're wrong...get over it.

Conspiracy nuts...entertaining and frustrating at the same time.
The people who spend their time with that junk really should get proper jobs, maybe they could do something useful for once that way.
 
OP: Why don't you accept that it's way beyond your (and nearly anyone's) reach to get "hard facts" about NASA faking the whole moon landing. Yes, it's possible that it was fake, while this chance is way too thin it's undoubtedly there, no one can take that from you. Actually there is one possible way for you to confirm wether it's true or not: build a spaceship, hop in, fly up there and check it. Now if you do that and find absolutely no trace of US astronauts ever being there (even though it still could be explained somehow I'm sure of it) then you would have a "hard fact" in your hands. Unfortunately some may would be still sceptical about your "alleged" moon landing... hehe.

I mean just landing on the moon SAFELY and leaving the moon "SAFELY" already require lots and lots of preparations and safety considerations.

OK, even if the moon landing was true, so, why how come after 1969 til 2006, totally 37 years, there is no other Moon programe to follow up ?

As far as I know, the Moon is full of raw materials (uranium ??) for fission.

Any comments ?

i cant be bothered to read the whole thing. no one has landed on the moon since 1972 because there is no money up there, it all went crazy in 1969 because the USA refused to be second to the USSR (landing on the moon). after that no one cared anymore, people lost interest and it wasnt selling papers. as for uranium, the reason no one takes it from the moon is the same reason no one launches nuclear waste into the sun, nobody wants a ship carrying tons of radioactive material to blow up 3 miles above the worlds richest country, and considering their track record...

You're correct, but I thought I'd add this to further cement it

in·crease Audio pronunciation of "increase" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (n-krs)
v. in·creased, in·creas·ing, in·creas·es
v. intr.

1. To become greater or larger.
2. To multiply; reproduce.
n. (nkrs)

1. The act of increasing: a steady increase in temperature.
2. The amount or rate by which something is increased: a tax increase of 15 percent.
3. Obsolete. Reproduction and spread; propagation.


incremental

adj : increasing gradually by regular degrees or additions; "lecturers enjoy...steady incremental growth in salary"

Therefore an incremental increase is a regular addition as opposed to a random increase, an exponential increase, etc.
