might be just any picture of pimples

[Eastwood]

I'm sold. That's all the proof I need they landed.

[murd0c]

So where's the great american flag they put up?

[SkinnyPupp]

Are people really fucking stupid enough to need convincing?

[Jsunu]

Yup, people who believe in moon landing conspiracies are crazy!

[BNR32_Coupe]

They really did land there. The evidence people come up with is hilarious. "How come the american flag is waving?" "Why cant you see the stars in the picture?" "Van allen belt radiation would kill the astronauts" etc etc. All hilarious assumptions

[shenmecar]

holy crap, there are astronauts on the moon?

if google map can take a picture of you picking nose from the space.
I dont see the difficulty NASA to take some clear pictures.

I mean...wtf is this?

Google Maps uses airplanes that fly a few thousand feet (or even hundreds?) from the surface.

Hey Asian XL, do you think the world will come to an end in 2012? :lol

Why can't the airplanes fly upside down (its possible ive seen jet fighters do it) and take pictures of the moon then? explain that

I just want to see another god dam moon landing! MOON BASES

Ah you got me.. I guess they really didn't land on the moon! These pics are just rocks!

[twitchyzero]

nothing wrong with skeptics concerning the moon landing. I personally believe in the landing.

it pretty much escaladed the cold war

it's like how russia had few thousand tanks with no engines inside of them when they were lined up for stalin's ceremonies.

[you]

wtf hahaha

Objects still move on their own in vacuum (flag). Over exposure on photos to show surface detail faded out most of the stars in the photos. Van Allen himself have denied the possibilities that the radiation in the belt will kill astronauts for the relative brief amount of time that they'll be inside it.

+1
Although I'm pretty skeptical myself regarding the truth about the landing, Mythbusters did do a good job at explaining the flag moving, foot prints of astronauts as well as the over exposure issue of picture taking.

What are you skeptical about the moon land specifically.

Note: im not trying to start a shitstorm here, im just curious about what other people think how it was faked.

FOOTPATH?

I saw a whale on the moon 2 days ago.

Ron Howards Film In the Shadow of the Moon contains all previously unrealsed footage of them on the moon. Here's just one of the parts. I think their all on youtube. Watch the film, and then shut the fuck up about how it was fake.

watch the movie about how they faked the moon landing and you will be shocked. It does make sence since after that they havn't tried going anywhere (mars rovers dont count)

Well clearly this topic does not make an sense to you because your unsure of how to even spell "sence". Now no offence to how stupid you are or anything but your anecdotal evidence that we never went to the moon is summed up by suggesting that after Apollo 11 went, no one else has gone to the moon correct?

Except their have been 5 manned landings on the moon since the one you point out. A total of twelve men have been on the Moon.

Apollo 11: Launched July 16 1969. First manned landing on the Moon.
Neil Armstrong, Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin, Michael Collins

Apollo 12: Launched November 14, 1969. Landed.
Pete Conrad, Alan Bean, Richard Gordon

Apollo 14: Launched January 31, 1971. Landed.
Alan Shepard, Ed Mitchell, Stuart Roosa

Apollo 15: Launched July 26, 1971. Landed.
David Scott, Jim Irwin, Al Worden

Apollo 16: Launched April 16, 1972. Landed.
John Young, Charles Duke, Ken Mattingly

Apollo 17: Launched December 7, 1972. Landed.
Gene Cernan, Harrison Schmitt, Ron Evans.

Aside from that Apollo missions 8, 13 and 10 have reached lunar orbit and several Russian Space missions have soft landed on the Moon; Luna 20 in '72, and Luna 24 in '76 even returned samples.

Now to further this evidence, I like this persons summary taken off another website.

1) Apollo 11 left a retroreflector on the lunar surface that astronomers have detected thousands of times.
2) Independent radio telescopes, when pointed at the Moon, detected the Apollo transmissions. If there hadn't been a ship there, they wouldn't have heard anything.
3) The Moon rocks have been thoroughly analyzed by geologists, who conclude that the rocks formed billions of years ago on the Moon. They explain that there's no way for NASA to fake the rocks.
4) No scientist rejects the landings. If there was something fishy about the landings, would it not be scientists who would notice? Instead, scientists are the first to vigorously defend the landings.

[tiger_handheld]

did you guys hear the moon landing didnt happen, and the entire 'process' was filmed from a warehouse in LA?

The US gov, didnt wan't to be #2 to the Russians, so they had to fake it.

[Bouncing Bettys]

question for the idiots - why did the soviets not discredit nasa's claims and accomplishments? afterall, they were in a space race with the US as another facet of the cold war. being able to prove the americans as frauds would have been major piece of ammunition. yet there was no attempt to discredit. the soviets sent various unmanned missions to the moon which could have easily aquired evidence that a manned moon landing never happened.

why haven't they been back since?
all sorts of reasons:
- a tighter budget due to a recession
- NASA was focusing on reusable space vehicles (the shuttle)
- NASA began focusing on space station developement and long-term space inhabitance which would also help with the creation of a lunar base should they ever return
- NASA had done pretty much all it could with manned landings on the moon while unmanned technology was improving to the point that it was cheaper
- basically, once man landed on the moon, the space race was essentially over. nasa could worry less about press headlines and patriotism and focus more on the scientific aspects of space

Wouldn't it be easier to move the camera to the top of the plane? lol

Exactly. These points kill all the major evidence of the landing being fake. Easiest conspiracy to debunk, however, something like 20% of americans believe the landing isn't real.

watch the movie about how they faked the moon landing and you will be shocked. It does make sence since after that they havn't tried going anywhere (mars rovers dont count)

did you guys hear the moon landing didnt happen, and the entire 'process' was filmed from a warehouse in LA?

The US gov, didnt wan't to be #2 to the Russians, so they had to fake it.

we haven't gone anywhere else because there's no cold war space race happening anymore. there's no need to invest trillions of $ to explore a different part of space thats close. in addition, we have technology so advance, it can detect the type of elements in atmospheres of planets in other solar systems. why go somewhere when you can look at it first?

also, in short, the space race was escalated out of fear. when the russians first send a man into space, it was the craziest thing to ever happen in history; the world was shocked and amazed. it would be like if today, we sent a man to another earth-like planet in another solar system. no one ever went into space in history, so when the US found out, they feared the worst. what if the russians are able to attack from space? the americans had to find out what space was like for themselves, and they took it to the next level - by landing on the moon.

[tonyvu]

i've always wondered why there wasn't any stars in the background when they took the pictures....

[murd0c]

I personally think the reason why we havn't done anything else because at the current moment there's more money in war rather then spending money going into space. Now if they found something that would make billions on the moon the US would be there so quick it wouldn't be a laughing matter.

Space is the future but war is the payday.

I'm glad they're using that for something more important than the fucking moon, which they have landed on several times. Using it to take high res pictures of the moon to shut up a bunch of blithering idiots would be a complete waste of time and effort. Besides, it's kind of entertaining to hear these idiots go on about how the landing was fake. Funny in an annoying kind of way, but funny nonetheless. Not quite as annoying as the 9/11 conspiracies, thank god.

you won't see any stars on moon when the big ass Earth is right above your head. It's like you don't see stars when it is full moon.
