Apollo 11 - 40 Years from the Moon

[morsecode]

Nobody loves a good conspiracy theory more than me, but c'mon now.

I believe that if we managed to take some of these fake landing fans on a guided tour of Tranquility Base they'd only come back and say they must have been given LSD and post hypnotic suggestions.

i like how nasa told mythbusters that the real "moon sand" was scarce so here is this "fake" moon sand??? and are you trying to say we had the technology to GO to the moon but not enough to fake it, do me a favor and say that out loud real quick, listen carefully. just cause a billion people were involved doesnt make it any harder to hide the truth, as soon as that thing was out of our sight the only people who needed to know is the people on board and and the people/person behind the fake. let all the people at mission control think they really are on the moon. america is conspiracy happy but you really have to be now, just cause im paranoid doesnt mean people arent out to get me, ill leave you with that. (no i dont really think people are out to get me)

Funny, I just checked the calendar and the next full moon isn't until August 6th.

I have a hard time believing that we could pull the wool over the eyes of the Russians. They had a pretty nifty space program, too and no doubt they were tracking the spacecraft the entire time.

No one had more desire to prove it was faked than the competition and 40 years later they still seem to be okay with our claims.

with the technology of a current day digital watch, yeah nothing could have slipped by that. not saying i believe or dont believe but i do like to not rule anything out till there is proof. and by proof i dont mean someone telling me "believe me it happened". i really would like to believe people but everybody lies, im just hoping people look into things and stop takin other peoples word for it, i mean there is evidence to suppot BOTH sides here, and if you are denying that well, good for you. also im not bound by a full moon, like normal crazies. lmao

For me, the Moon hoax crowd merely reinforces the idea that most conspiracy theories are a form of mental illness. Here is a great website run by Phil Plait, a physicist and astronomer who refutes the Moon landing conspiracy nuts point by point:

Phil Plait's Bad Astronomy: Bad TV

Yes, the landings happened folks.

I've really enjoyed seeing the coverage of this event and the rekindling of some of the national pride we felt 40 years ago. We live near Kennedy Space Center and it's been disappointing to see the interest and pride fade away. This year has been especially bad with the shuttle winding down and the Annointed One overseas apologizing for the country. Where's the pride we used to have?

Here's a shot of the Thunderbirds during NASA's 50th Anniversary at KSC. We went down that day and it was nice to be amoung a group of people who were "proud to be an American". They even had an Air Force First Sergeant sing the National Anthym without all the artistic crap. Lots of salutes there and all stood. Cool day!

Was I there? You bet! Sitting of the living room floor watching the whole thing.

Like I said, Conspiracy theorists........... got no use for 'em!

exactly, not in the space craft, you COULD have been watching a movie? im simply stating there is a SLIGHT possibility its fake, look at ALL facts. and please realize the government does occasionally lie to the masses, all im sayin. maybe we did go but i cant believe it just cause YOU say it happened, fact is you were not (physically) there.

 

[VonFatman]

Well heck, I wasn't in Massachusetts when S&W made my Model 28-2 but for some darn reason it's right here and I actually believe those lyin' scoundrels made this gun.

Geesh...some of us will go to great extremes to "prove" their so called points even if only to try to shade the obvious. Life is full of opportunities to have a little faith...I guess I'm just a sheeple with no ability to see the "obvious".

I'm guessing since I was in KC when the towel-heads hit the Towers that was faked too?

Brother.

[Crazy K38]

well the way I figure it whether it happened or not we have WAY to many problems now to go play with the moon but I hope we go back

Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah-

Yeah, right. And Kennedy's real assassin is stomping the streets of Havana, and Roosevelt just KNEW that we were going to be attacked because he wanted us in the war and Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah-Blah! Like I said Conspiracy theorists - go no use for em - or you.

 

[9c1 lover]

^wow... and vonfatman, niether are even comparible.

I was fifteen when the landing happened. I saved the local paper, and still have it. What's kind of amazing is the story in the lower right corner of the front page.

 

[VAdoublegunner]

Now we *all* know that story on the lower right page never happened. It was an early directorial debut by Oliver Stone, who totally faked the whole thing CSI style. The technology existed at the time to do it. Kennedy wasn't even in the country at the time his car was jacked and alleged to have crashed. It was reported on Oprah right after the fake moon landing expose', so you know it must be true.... I mean if he *really* did something like that he could never continue with a career in politics, now could he?

Certainly Old Fat Theo could have never done anything like that.
