How did they manage to lie to the 400,000 people employed on the Apollo program so successfully?
Did they murder astronauts Williams, Bassett, Freeman, Grissom, White & Chaffee for reasons to do with your "conspiracy"?
Do you believe the preceeeding Mercury then Gemini missions were also faked?
Did Apollo 7 test the C/SM hardware in Earth Orbit?
Did Apollo 8 voyage to the moon and back in Dec 1968?
Did Apollo 9 test the LM in Earth Orbit?
Did Apollo 10 orbit the moon, and did it's LM fly over the lunar surface?
How did Russia, when tracking the Apollo 11 landing, get so duped by NASA? They followed the C/SM/LM all the way to the moon remember....
How did NASA then dupe the world again when Apollo 12 landed the moon?
Did they fake the triumph over disaster that was Apollo 13?
Did they dupe the WHOLE WORLD again when Apollo 14 landed on the moon?
Did they dupe the WHOLE WORLD again when Apollo 15 landed on the moon?
Did they dupe the WHOLE WORLD again when Apollo 16 landed on the moon?
Did they dupe the WHOLE WORLD again when Apollo 17 landed on the moon?
Wow how clever, they some how managed to land six LMs on the moon over a period of 3.5 years without really doing it! What were all those Earth radar stations tracking? :rolleyes:
As for the science behind the venture, have you not Newton and Copernicus??? The science behind Apollo is hundreds of years old. By the time the 60s had come, rocket technology had reached a point where it could do what the science of Newton said it could do.
ONLY THE TRULY IGNORANT SAY THAT MAN NEVER WALKED ON THE MOON.
Great post and I for one am a believer. I watched it on the TV.
For it to have been faked thousands of people must have been in on it. I don't think it was possible to fool so many people.
How do you convince non Americans to pretend you tracked all these spacecraft to the moon just to get one step ahead of the Russians.
Have you ever heeard Harry Nillson sing that? also did you know that the original duo that wrote that never got the credit for it?
Yep, I have heard Harry sing it, which is one of the reasons I don't particularly like Mariah.. She took a beautiful piece of music and turned it into American trash.
I didn't know about the original writers not getting any credits for writing it though, that's a shame! Who is credited for writing it then, Harry?

I would have to look it up in my video collection but I will do it for you in the next 24 hours.
Well if I am honest 1969. We had an old woman neighbour who resolutely maintained it was all a hoax in 1969.
Her two reasons were:
1. You could not land on the moon as it was only the size of her kettle.
2. It was not mentioned in the local newspaper.
The bigger conspiracy was after the release of Capricon I film.
I dimly recall, not long after the moon landings, seeing an interview with an elderly English eccentric (male, so not your neighbour), who insisted that they couldn't have gone to the moon as it was just a small disc a few feet across. He had a rather elaborate theory to support this belief.
Further evidence was that the Apollo rockets didn't go "straight up" as he would expect. Based on their trajectory, he'd worked out where (on Earth) they were really landing...
I also have a vague feeling that NASA or the BBC paid to take him to watch a subsequent Apollo launch, feeling sure that the sheer majesty of the spectacle would make him change his mind. It didn't.

Ssshhh.
I have not heard of that one before. It would be good to find a reference.
A guy bet £1 at 10,000 and won his bet. He was quite big news in the run up to the moon landing.
I think he was later killed in a car crash which he had bought with his winnings although I am not 100% sure about that.
During the debate on the various moon hoax thread I said that we would have an answer in the spring. Well within a month there is a mission to the moon due which should easily answer the sceptics. Are you prepared to consider the new evidence or will you be forever a naysayer?
Which skeptics?
I don't know of any skeptics who think the moon landings were faked.

Haha!! Okay I'll give you that one. After all, she's only a hundred times better than the p!ss poor man's version aka Leona Lewis

How old were you in 1969?
lively debate!
On the subject of the Moon landings when did the hoax theory first appear?
Yep, I have heard Harry sing it, which is one of the reasons I don't particularly like Mariah.. She took a beautiful piece of music and turned it into American trash.

Thank you very much!! :cool:
Anyway, enough of fog horns and dog whistles, back to the moon

Your old woman neighbour from 40yrs ago sounds like she has more intellect than those that spout their moon hoax theories in this forum.
HAHAHA
That has given me the biggest laugh of the day!
Got to get off this place now.. Cheerio

What??!! in your own rocket?
Ssshhh.

[Or, I could have just imagined the whole thing, but I don't think so].

yes, what possible benefit could have the Soviets have gained from exposing the US as fraudsters..
Gay immmgrants faked the moon landings because they were obsessed with violent videogames in a plot to destroy house prices!
Daily Mail headline of the weeeeeeeeek!
Wow, did you take a camera?
i.e. One has believers backed up by documented historical fact and science and non believers that go on half-baked vague theories
And the other has believers that go on half-baked theories with non-believers siting a lack of documented historical fact and science....?
tee hee, sorry, just wondered if i would be able to combine 2 of the biggest discussion reasons on this forum into one thread..
I like a challenge!
Interesting......
There are parallels too:
Jesus Christ (allegedly) walked upon the Sea of Galilee.
Neil Armstrong (allegedly) walked upon the Sea of Tranquility.
...and they both came in peace for all mankind.
