Yes, but it would take one heck of a lens.

I will be honest and say that a Saturn 5 rocket could definitely reach the moon. The whole thing is solid fuel. The modern day shuttles could never get there. They burn too much fuel just leaving the Earth's atmosphere and don't have enough left over to make the long trip to the moon. It makes me want to ask the question....what proof is there that it was faked? (aside from the claims that there was a studio somewhere that it was filmed in)

Well unless aliens put that laser mirror array in the Sea of Tranquility, nope. It's there. (Apollo 11) Been there since 1969.

Don't post a what?

 

[Esquire]

Don't you know? There are no such things as "lasers", and all the "scientists" who supposedly bounce them off those mirrors on a daily basis are just paid actors.

I read sometime back that the hubble has the power to resolve a footstep on the moon.

There you have it, folks. Undeniable proof. You could probably go to one of any number of observatories and shine a laser on the mirrors yourself.

We were never there. The movies were made on a sound stage in Culver City. I thought everyone knew that.

I love how it turns to cheese if you zoom all the way in.

Here's another from NASA:

Image above: Apollo 17 Landing Site. The top image showcases Hubble Space Telescope's first high-resolution ultraviolet and visible imaging of the Apollo 17 site in the moon's Taurus-Littrow Valley. Humans last walked and drove on the lunar surface here in December 1972 (bottom image). The red X in the top Hubble image pinpoints the Apollo 17 touch-down position.

hahahah very neat

It's fairly simple: the people running things like the Hubble are smart enough to realize that simply pointing their telescope at the moon to show a high res photo of footprints will do nothing more than get the conspiracy nuts to say "yeah, sure. They're just showing pictures taken from the scaffolding above the sound stage. See, you can see the shadow on the ground of..." Plus, the scientists can't be bothered with wasting their time appeasing a small group of nutcases. It's sort of like Listerine... kills 99.9% of bacteria. In this case, it's the .1% that can't be bothered with.

doesn't seem to show anything

 

[Esquire]

but seriously, i would have thought that they would have hi super res photoed the moon b4 today.... i mean its ripe 4 the pic in. especially if u want to build there

 

[ubercaffeinated]

ROFL

zoom ALL the way in and see what happens.

That's not even a fair PhotoChop.

 

[Old Hippie]

There was no faking of the moon landing. At that time there was a major space race between Russia and the USA. Do you actually think they would have turned a blind eye to that secenario? Get real and move on to another conspiracy theory.

OK, I won't.
