Was The Apollo Moon Landing Fake?
Moon landing conspiracy theories - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

And why we haven't gone back in 41 years?

Discuss.

incorrect

A stupid thread. A very stupid thread.

 

[Casey]

There's a very good chance it was indeed fake.

"We" haven't gone back because of many factors like space travels fundings and more human life risk restrictions. Things were different back in the cold war.
While the moon landing could indeed just be a propaganda move I highly doubt it.

 

[Duke]

Why "we" didn't go back? Because the moon-race was marketing. There's no reason to bounce around on the moon apart from prestige.

With the Cold War over, space travel funding can be used for a million more useful things.

I read an article once about the top stupid things that most Americans believe.. this was one of them.

It wasn't a fake landing. In fact, Astronomers now believe...landing on the moon is causing it to shrink.

I've yet to see anyone explain why there are NO stars visible in any of the moon photos despite the moon having no atmosphere and therefore more star visibility.

It was a starless night

 

[masta247]

Even if stars were easily visible from where they took these pictures they would have to take photos in total darkness to see the stars. It was simply too bright. Try taking a picture with flash at night (or of any illuminated object for that matter). You won't see any stars in the background either.
Even on earth in total darkness it requires setting your camera properly to capture the stars.

Also "flag" theories are pretty common. There's no atmosphere to stop the flag from moving after it was placed there either..

Why dont we ask Wiki Leaks

The landings were made during the early parts of the lunar day. The moon reflects light, the surface is bright, the astronauts wear bright suits. Camera's won't pick up the faint light from the stars (unless speficially set for it), the human eye won't pick up the faint starlight during daytime either because there's too much light around.


If you've ever seen anyone explain this to you, you haven't really sought hard to disprove the conspiracy bonkers, have you?

 

[Jokerman]

The fake moon landing theory is a million times dumber than the 9/11 conspiracy theories, yet even someone like Casey is not so sure. I would concede to the Holocaust never happening before I would to the moon landings. There's more of a chance that God exists (zero chance) than that the moon landings didn't happen. Hitler was an orthodox Jewish rabbi is more likely than ...

 

[Casey]

Aight, I guess I have my explanation.

I don't actually care much - I just know a few people that rabidly believe the whole thing was staged and will defend that belief quite heavily. I actually forget most of the points they made because as I said, it doesn't really interest me that much, but the one I posted before was one that I remembered.

 

[Cooper]

Does anyone know how many people were involved in the moon landings? It would be very hard to stage it and keep so many people quiet.

 

[_carmi]

Why haven't we gone back since then? There's no oil or any other valuable resource to withdraw from the Moon.

If i recall, I think there were about six of us in my basement at the time.

NASA will be heading back to the Moon in future missions, so I've read. As for resources, I know there is an abundance of Helium 3.

I think, I've been playing too much Starcraft 2, I was about to say there is a lot of Minerals and Vespene gas on the planet... lol

the target conclusion of any successful conspiracy
