Apollo moon landing -- fake

[clipperjune]

The moon landings are real.

See www.badastronomy.com, all issues raised in the website posted above has been answered.

There's an old movie called 'Capricorn One' that's all about a fake Mars landing naman.

I find this moon landing hoax very interesting.

This is old news. People who believe that man did not land on the moon are the same people who believe that Elvis is still alive, the man in the grassy knoll, and the roswell incident.

Now an answer to your question, Moon rocks and common sense prove Appollo astronouts really did visit the moon.

"The best rebuttal to allegations of a "Moon Hoax," however, is common sense. Evidence that the Apollo program really happened is compelling: A dozen astronauts (laden with cameras) walked on the Moon between 1969 and 1972. Nine of them are still alive and can testify to their experience. They didn't return from the Moon empty-handed, either. Just as Columbus carried a few hundred natives back to Spain as evidence of his trip to the New World, Apollo astronauts brought 841 pounds of Moon rock home to Earth."

Now if you think the moon rocks are fakes,

"Even if scientists wanted to make something like a Moon rock by, say, bombarding an Earth rock with high energy atomic nuclei, they couldn't. Earth's most powerful particle accelerators can't energize particles to match the most potent cosmic rays, which are themselves accelerated in supernova blastwaves and in the violent cores of galaxies.

Indeed, says McKay, faking a Moon rock well enough to hoodwink an international army of scientists might be more difficult than the Manhattan Project. "It would be easier to just go to the Moon and get one," he quipped."

Guys check out this LINK which also tackles the same topic. It's in another forum, but the discussion is quite interesting. Magaganda ang tanong at sagot patungkol sa pagpunta ng tao sa buwan.

Interesting that people still tkink it was faked, my advice get an education and go to the NASA space center. Ignorance is not bliss.

I once received a long email regarding this. The arguments against a moon landing are so inanely amusing that I'm beginning to think the proponents of the idea really intended it as a joke...and that somewhere along the way, a few suckers were actually fooled into believing it. The ignorance has been actively perpetuated by people who are trying to appear smart, but who don't really bother to make the extra effort to find out real facts.

It's so sad that anything written in a website can now be believed without a few moments of careful scrutiny... or common sense.

i am not inciting heated argument nor inviting inflammatory post, nor am i asserting that moon's landing is but a pseudoscience. this has created lots of hullabaloos among modern science and crusading radicals, but yet i am hoping that we take this topic with a commensurating prudence and a well-balanced point of reckoning.

this was sent to me by an email. if anybody of you has the other side of the coin, let it be known here for everyone's impartial settlement of thought.

I'm curious. What were NASA's rebuttals for the "contradicting shadows" theory as read in the previous post?

[clipperjune]

Not NASA's rebuttals but it answers the "contradiciting shadows".

get an education?
from education, people learn to speculate. what we learned in school is not biased so keeping our minds open to other so-called "myths" doesn't necessarily signify a lack of education.
ignorance is not bliss?
neither is being disrespectful to other people's opinions...

i didn't start this thread to initiate criticisms to be swapped on from a member to another (or from a member to a group of people who disagree with him/her). please focus more on the topic than the people u disagree with. gosh darn it people! i bet you are all older than i am so please act like civilized human beings and discuss this with an open mind.

i absolutely respect your opinion and you are free to open up about what you think. but i think that you should probably word your comments more respectfully.

about the NASA thing, I have an uncle that works for NASA and I used to live near the Kennedy Space Center. So, you can't tell me that my speculation is based on a lack of education. I'm not saying that it is a FACT that the landing is hoax. I just said, "i think" which really translates for me as "it is a possibility." I could be wrong but there are some evidences which seem to support this speculation.

i hope this hoax thing isn't true because i have been living in the u.s. and it will be shameful for us but trust me, we could (notice that i used "could" and not "will") actually do something like that... its a possibility

[zipzamzowee]

I personally believe it is all a hoax

[hilars888]

China will be sending their unmanned moon mission on 2010, and establish a base on the lunar surface.....

[clipperjune]

NASA's current plan is to send a mission to the Moon by 2018, at a cost of 100 Billion Dollars.

Now if you still believe that the Apollo landing was a hoax, it would have been the biggest conspiracy done in history, with every member of NASA, U.S. Congress at that time ( they approved the budget), and the scientific establishment having a part in the hoax. It would be pretty difficult to keep a lid on such a grandscale conspiracy. Where are the whistle blowers who are actually part of the program? To keep everything in perspective the Watergate Scandal was only known to a handful of people yet the truth came out. How much more wherein the U.S. government itself was part of this massive "hoax"?


Even the Russians (Former U.S.S.R) acknowledged that NASA really landed on the moon.

Please stop watching any documentary (kuno) shown in FOX. It's for your own good.

[sliderule]

It's kind of a stretch for the whole thing to be a hoax (after all there were a number of landings na dba?)...but I still think the small evidences brought forth by the conspiracy theorists are very interesting, and the same for the rebuttals who effectively address each argument with a counter argument...now that's the proper way to converse. Sarcastic and condescending remarks are not welcome.

the president of the united states gets a blow job in the oval office, the world finds out.
he sticks a cigar up his bimbo's snatch, the world finds out.
a former president of the united states based a lot of his decisions on advice from an astrologer, the world finds out.
a former president of the united states is bonking a hollywood actress, his brother, the attorney-general is f**king the same actress, the world finds out.

hundreds of people involved in the moon landings in a direct or indirect role, from the janitors who cleaned the control centre at the end of the day, the communications specialists in australia who relayed the radio messages, to the astronauts who walked on the moon. that's a lot of people to bribe, threaten, intimidate or k*ll.

don't let the greatest achievement of this species, ever, be forgotten.

fox can put out all the crap television shows it wants. let the easily deluded be pulled in, let the suckers buy the t-shirts, it won't alter the fact:

36 years ago man walked on the surface of the moon.

then why don't we do it again?
that'll be cool, i can watch some dude floating around
