Did people really go to the moon?

Answer 1

Yes, they did. There are things on the Net which could make an unwary person think there were no Moon missions, including a supposed lack of any disturbance of soil under the lander and the wrong shadows. Or at least that's what the spoofers say. Most seem to know better, they simply enjoy misleading people. Some even fake up and alter footage etc. and post it on YouTube.

Actually, the things that "tend to disprove" it are simple things that the hoax believers just don't understand. Go to clavius.org or badastronomy.com and they will explain what the Moonhoaxers misunderstand. Then go to Wikipedia and search for "third party evidence of Apollo". Yes, they really went to the moon!

The shadows aren't wrong, for example; people simply don't understand what they are seeing. Go out in the Sun, and look around. Objects in the distance will seem to be casting shadows at a different angle than your own shadow. Your shadow will change, if you are on raised or lowered ground. When people see these identical things happening in the Apollo pix, they think it means the pix are faked!

As to the dust under the lander... the engine was barely ticking over on landing, and literally pushed on the lunar surface far less than a leaf blower pushes on your sidewalk. It blew away a lot of the dust, leaving the hard rock layer beneath undisturbed. People think the engine should have drilled a crater underneath, but your leaf blower doesn't leave craters in the sidewalk, does it? For some reason people look at the maximum output of the engine, as if this had some bearing on what was going on at landing. Your car may go 80, but you don't do it in your driveway, do you?

Answer 2

Yes, humans have landed on the moon. The Apollo program, run by NASA, successfully landed astronauts on the moon between 1969 and 1972. Six manned missions landed on the moon, with Apollo 11 being the first to successfully land humans on its surface in 1969.
