In honor of the 40th anniversary of the moon 'landings' i thought it would be fun to take our minds away from windows 7 for a bit and try and figure out if man actually set foot on the moon.
Here is a good site with some decent points:
The Apollo Hoax?

Personally i have my doubts. What do you guys think?

Im sorry, but as soon as I found out the Jose Escamilia was involved with the "evidence" being presented, that was all I needed to know... This is the Nutter who claims that "rods" zip through the air :roflmao: --==> Clicky

Get a life. Armstrong, Aldrin and all the US astronauts were heroes, as were the techs and scientists who achieved this wonderful feat.
To suggest this was a hoax is utterly stupid for any Win7 user!
There isn't a single claimed reason why the landing was staged that hasn't been thoroughly debunked by a legion of clear thinking scientists.
Let alone to ask the rather obvious question as to how thousands of patriotic honest god fearing Americans would lie for 40 years and NOT ONE would crack and say that it was a hoax.
Bunkum. Haven't we got better things to spend our time on?

I like some conspiracy theories...

But man really walked on the moon... that's a fact...

Let's see in 2018 with Constellation Mission back to moon and show the footprints and all the evidences...

i believe man DID in fact walk on the moon. however i dont think it was in the 60's like they say. like late 80's probably, just to do it. in the 60's it was a race, now nobody gives a crap. "oh wow! the moon! ..... lets go to the mall!"

booo-weeee-hooooo (O_O)

"One sceptic on the Bad astronomy sceptics web group has even said it is a hair??? on both the rock and ground? Now who's trying to cover things up?"

On the film maybe? hehe :)

[SIZE=-1]"Some of the lighting on 'official NASA film' are very suspect. The NASA picture to the left should show the astronaut in complete shadow because the sun is behind him, and yet the whole of the astronaut is caught in bright light? The shot should appear like the one on the right which was simulated by David Percy.[/SIZE]"

Light reflected off the moons surface. :P
And i thought of that in 2 seconds....

Hi all
We've had some "Moon Sandwiches" which really DOES prove that the moon is made up of Green Cheese and that Hollywood still rules the Appollo missions.

Seriously guys what a shame that even now after 40 years we still only have the "boring Dinosaur Technology" of the Space Shuttle - which hasn't had anything new in it since Concorde days.

We should at least have a settlement on Mars now -- had Earth worked together on these projects we could possibly have avoided wars like Vietnam, IRAQ, Afghanistan etc and Japan, India, China etc would aslo have become involved. We probably would have avoided the current recession as well and discovered more useful sources of Green Energy etc.

40 years wasted IMO -- at least they are thinking about reviving some of these programs -- Real jobs --better than pourin g Trillions into the Bankers greedy mits -- and just loook at the Bonuses Goldman Sachs are gettin g this year AFTER being rescued by US Federal Govt.

Cheers
jimbo

I wouldn't doubt at all that some PR genius at the time came up with doctored or fake images for the press because it looked more like what they wanted to show. But there's way too much real time, effort, budget and collateral evidence, including several missions, to make this a hoax. Anybody who has witnessed a Saturn 5 lift-off just knows :D.

I never doubted the landing and still really don't, but this week was the anniversary week of the moon landing, and something odd struck me.

I watched some 4 hours of documentaries, and one piece of footage keeps puzzling me.

There is one film shot showing the lunar module leaving the moon.

The shot is taken from the moon. And more surprising is that the camera is tracking the takeoff and even zooming in.

What puzzles me is how the camera could move and zoom without anybody operating it?
Or did they have some kind of remote on the camera?
How could one operate the remote so perfectly keeping the module in perfect view and focus, while being ejected with incredible speed off the moon?

And would they have time for operating a camera while being busy ejecting of the moon?
If it wasn't manually done, was the camera preprogrammed?
There were no computers in those days small enough to fit in a camera, so how did that work?

That camera also would have had to have a broadcasting device.
How would the footage otherwise find it's way to earth?

That must have been one hell of a sophisticated camera.

I don't believe or don't want to believe the moon landing didn't happen.
I would be shocked because it is one of my earliest memories.
I was 3 yrs old, but I remember watching it with my family in front of the black and white tv.
I didn't understand then what I was watching, but I did remember it.

The moving and zooming camera is a mystery to me.

Maybe one of you could shed some light on it.

this is the link to the footage on youtube.

Hahahaha! Thanks for the link and the laugh. :) I always enjoy reading conspiracy theories for the sheer entertainment value.

It's all too easy to fall into that trap of believing theories because one finds possible fault or unknowns in something presented to them by anyone with authority. The human mind loves to fill in the gaps and make conclusions by stringing together these 'unknowns' to prove/disprove something. However, it is much more amusing to see this happen to someone else. ;)

Well, in fact we have a LOT of advancement in designs and testings since the old televised Shuttle launch days when a NASA launch was something the whole nation paused to watch.

Unfortunately it isn't a hot topic for the media and sees very little press coverage compared to sensationalistic headlines. But it's always a hot topic for me.

New NASA astronauts will never fly on shuttle - Space.com- msnbc.com

Well the Japanese recently imaged sevveral apollo landing sites and have independant photographic evidence ot the activities.

Of course NASA could have paid the Japanese billions of yen to fake the photos I guess! (The "great" thing about conspiracy is that you can say just about ANYTHING and there will be some % of the population that will think you are right.)

Hi ciphernemo,

I am not a believer in the conspiracy theory.

I just would like to know how they did the shot?

A from earth controlled camera would have a 3 second lag time. (time for the current image to travel to earth, and the time to send a control command back to the camera)

It would be hard to track anything with a 3 second lag.

I just find it remarkable.

If anyone can figure out how they did it. let me know.
