The moon landings never happened

Answer 1

No, they definately happened and it's a terrible injustice to everyone who worked so hard to finally make that "giant leap for mankind" to pretend it was a multi billion dollar hoax! I however am not one of those people so don't assume this report to be biased.

You cannot argue with numbers

Do you believe that anyone who disagrees has a decorous understanding of what NASA are capable of? With a constantly inclining annual budget of over $100,000,000,000, over 219² miles at Kennedy space center alone and an inscrutable interest and understanding of how to make space travel possible, there is no watertight argument against the Apollo program succeeding.

There is however mathematical proof that they did.

The moon is, on average, 1.05 light seconds from Earth (a light second is the distance a photon of light travels in a second, it's not a measure of time). From Kennedy space center, Florida, you could shine a beam of light to the moon which will reflect off of a mirror and come back. It takes exactly 2.1 seconds for the light to come back into the receiver which means it had to have gone as far as the moon and back and it had to have a mirror to reflect it.

The only way a mirror could have been placed on the moon, where Kennedy space center knows where to find it, is if an astronaut placed it there.

Or perhaps the martians did it?

Apollo 15 and the Kaguya space probe

There is physical, visual and mathematical proof that man has been to the moon; 800 lbs. of basalt was acquired from the Apollo missions and transported back to earth. This type of basalt, which has been naturally formed over the billions of years that the moon has existed, is found nowhere on earth, so where else can it have come from but the moon?

That is physical evidence. The visual evidence is the infamous comparison between a radar image, taken by the Japanese space probe Kaguya (Ka-goy-a), and an average photograph taken on the Apollo 15 mission. It depicts two different types of photograph, taken at different times, on missions by different countries, however the images are identical. I have personally scrutinized the two to find any differences and so may you; there is no difference between the two and there's no way that this could have been faked.

The counter arguments

You may be wondering about the flapping flag. Obviously there's no wind on the moon (there's no air) to make it flap but it does appear to flap a decent amount doesn't it?

Yes, this is because of the lack of air. There is a near perfect vacuum on the moon, so when they put the flag on the moon it shook and there is no air resistance to stop the flag flapping until its weight decelerates its horizontal motion due to the gravitational pull of the moon.

You could also question how the flag stays upright with nothing to hold it up?

Well, quite simply, there is. There is a pole through the top of the flag holding, keeping it horizontal.

In addition, this is a ridiculous argument regardless of its flaws. If NASA had tried to fake it, then they wouldn't let the flag be blown around by the wind coming through an open door would they? Otherwise ill informed conspiracy theorists would think that the flag was being blown around by wind.

There is a sceptic site at

http://www.ufos-aliens.co.uk/cosmicapollo.html

These are quite convincing lies I'm afraid but the creator obviously doesn't have all the facts. Have you ever before seen the video near the top on any news channel before? no, because all the 'witnesses' are actors. Notice how there's no footage of these people at the places they claim they have been to Did_man_realy_go_to_the_moontheir claims.

Secondly, the pictures they use have been air brushed by the conspiracy theorists who made the site, not by NASA and they aren't covering any objects up - it's just smudged ground. Again, if NASA had tried to fake it, it wouldn't be so badly obvious.

They also say that they've attached thin wires to the astronauts to help them 'bounce' around the moon and then halved the film speed. Well they can still talk at the same speed and if the audio is on the same track as the visuals (sound and picture) then you can't halve the speed of one without the other. Therefore it hasn't been slowed down at all. Mythbusters also disproved this conspiracy theory.

Remember they can just make up all their facts and videos as persuasive techniques and do whatever they like to the photos and claim that NASA did it. NASA cannot lie about something as incredible and important as the first man on the moon, as 1 billion years in the future (due to solar luminescence - heat and radiation) the Earth will be uninhabitable by humans and the future of the entire human race will depend on our ability to survive in space (this isn't even Sci-fi).
