You think the moon landing was faked?

[rimshaker]

Anyone watch that TV episode where they tried to explore the inconsistencies and impossibilities of the moon landing? They had controversies about incorrect picture shadows, sunlight reflections, dust and landing marks, lethal EM exposures, etc. The only way to prove it to the critics is to actually locate the space vehicles left there. We can now send satellites outside of the solar system... why have there been no pics taken of the moon with the space vehicles sitting there?? Hmmmmmm....

 

[spaceman]

i do not believe that the moon landing was fake.

why go thru all the trouble,and why havent other nations(with space programs) discredited it as well,if it was supposedly a fake?


bah!

 

[SpongeBob]

I kinda always had a suspicion that they were faked. I hope they weren't though, and I'd like to see NASA do some real moon landings sometime soon.

<< iwhy go thru all the trouble >>

The political climate of the time was one where the Soviet Union was perceived to be academically and scientifically more advanced than the US. The US needed to get to the moon before the USSR in an effort to demoralize a nation that already had strong momentum.


<< and why havent other nations(with space programs) discredited it as well,if it was supposedly a fake? >>

To date, no other spacefaring nations have landed on the moon.

Never really thought about it too much, but its an interesting conspiracy theory though.

I personally don't think that it was fake though.

I guess NASA have important things to do than spend millions of dollars to just to prove a small minority of people wrong.

 

[GasX]

you really have me thinking there.

Read this!!!

i saw a tv special on this but it was kinda one-sided in favor of the conspiracy theory. every time they talked to the representative from NASA, all he could say was "that's just ridiculous" in response to every point about why it was probably faked.

Here are some things that are so blatantly obvious that I can't believe I never noticed them:

A camera panned upwards to catch Apollo 16's Lunar Landerlifting off the Moon. Who did the filming?

One NASA picture from Apollo 11 is looking up at Neil Armstrong about to take his giant step for mankind. The photographer must have been lying on the planet surface. If Armstrong was the first man on the Moon, then who took the shot?

Why is the flag fluttering if there is no air or wind on the moon?


Also, if you take the moon footage and slow it down by 1/2, you get regular earth footage.

Just read Maggotry's link and STFU!

At this day and age I'm still amazed people believe the moon landing was faked. However, people still believe that Elvis is alive and the earth is hollow (with another population inside no doubt).

x951, those questions are easily answered if you do some actual research. Watching a two bit show on Fox that's more about sensationalism and ratings does not constitute research.

 

[Amused]

The moon landing was as real my GF's orgasims.

Oh, wait...

 

[rimshaker]

See... this is what i mean. You get millions of skeptics, and then get another millions who believe it.

A simple picture with the space vehicles sitting there is all it takes!!

 

[Linflas]

This was an idea that began floating around in late 70's when we decided that space exploration was too tough a task for us to handle. Considering that this government can't even keep information that affects national security secret I seriously doubt they would be able to keep the lid on a hoax of this magnitude.

But its not as simple as that is it? Someone cannot just simply walk outside and take a snap or two with a digital camera. It would involve months of planning and millions of dollars to do such a mission!

 

[GSOYF]

absolutely not fake......

Ok, the earth IS hollow with people living inside it.

Where did you think Cheney went?

As for your "picture" of the surface with moon landing equiptment on it, who would beleve it? By deffinition, these moon landing conspericy theorists are not the most objective observers, or are going to be blinded by facts.

Of course it's fake.
This Guy will sell you the proof for a mere $20.
And haven't any of you guys seen Capricorn One?

[yakko]

If they really landed on the moon then why didn't they get Taco Bell to go?

 

[Hammer]

Ha ha ha, you guys sre SO gullible. The accusations made were all refuted and explained on NASAs own web site. Of course we landed on the moon. Other Apollo flights also landed on the moon, they brought moon rocks back, hit golf balls of the moon, left foot prints. A US flag still stands to this day.

 

[ViperXX]

We used alien technology to get to the moon. We recovered one of their ships (Roswell) in the late 40's. We also have a couple of crafts given to us by the aliens which are kept at area 51. Go here

If it is so important to you, why don't you save up your money and buy a really really really really big telescope...

if you read my first post, i never said i believed it - i recognized the one-sidedness of the hoax show. and i only brought up those points because i thought they were interesting. i read the the article refuting these points and it makes sense. i'm not a physics expert, and a moon hoax doesn't matter to me, and really isn't worth my time researching.

<< Here are some things that are so blatantly obvious that I can't believe I never noticed them:

My guess is that it was a robotic machine on some type of timer.


<< One NASA picture from Apollo 11 is looking up at Neil Armstrong about to take his giant step for mankind. The photographer must have been lying on the planet surface. If Armstrong was the first man on the Moon, then who took the shot? >>

could it be a camera that was extended from the space capsule.


<< Why is the flag fluttering if there is no air or wind on the moon? >>

One thing you can learn in physics is that i something starts to move it doesn't stop until forces act upon it. Here on earth that force is usually gravity, on the moon there is not as much gravity so it takes longer for thing to stop moving (also no air means a lot less friction on the flag). So when the flag was put into the moon and it moved because someone touched it, it would have stayed moving for a long time.


<< Also, if you take the moon footage and slow it down by 1/2, you get regular earth footage. >>

What does this mean. Nasa decided to use a film speed that was easy to buy and easy to ship to space. God they must have faked it. Also here is a question what is 'regular earth footage'? My guess is that you are refering to film speed, but to let you know there are more then one speed of film. I'll let you look into this some more.
