Did man really walk on the moon?

Yes they did. Those space suits cost millions of dollars for a reason. People who do not believe this happened just really do not know much about science at all.It's clear that 500,000 people can't keep a secret. The whole hoax idea started from some people who did not know enough about science to understand what the photos were showing, and so assumed the photos were fake! But if you go to badastronomy.com or clavius.org these simple mistakes are explained in such a way that the "hoax" idea no longer makes any sense... not that it ever really did!


How was the satellite invented?

The idea of an artificial satellite goes back at least as far as the prototype science fiction story "The Brick Moon". The idea that actual, real satellites could perform useful work goes back to about 1947, when science fiction author Arthur C. Clarke realized that satellites orbiting the equator at about 22,000 miles out, would appear not to move in the sky. You could aim an antenna at it and leave it. Thus you could make communications satellites that could transmit a signal from anywhere on Earth to anywhere on Earth, just by having 3 satellites spaced around the Earth. The first actual, real satellite was Sputnik, sent up by the Russians in the late Fifties.

What would have happened if the 1986 observations of Halley's comet had not supported Dr Whipple hypothesis?

Dr. Fred Whipple came up with the idea that comets are "dirty snowballs"; primarily ice and frozen gasses, holding a large quantity of dust, pebbles and rocks. If the evidence hadn't supported his theory, he would have had to go back and come up with a different theory. That's the way science works - or at least, is SUPPOSED to work.
