There will always be non-believers...

[TheThing]

Hopefully this might shut some up.

[steveangel]

The fact that people still doubt it happpened baffles me!!

There are pieces of mirror placed on the moon that we ccan physically reflect light off, and when you recieve the pulse back there is NO doubt!

[Psychobilly]

Isn't the moon hollow and the dark side covered in UFO bases?

Nice find I shall post the link to a few people I know....

Peter...

A very entertaining read, suppose it won't make any difference to all the conspiracy theorists out there though. No matter how much evidence you put under their noses they're always going to deny it, silly really if you think about it

[sbooder]

If we did go to the Moon, where is all the Moon Cheese Gromit?

[insomnia]

Its strange that the majority of dis-believers actually live in the USA.

If there was any chance of it being faked then you would of thought that the USA's main competitors in the space race, ie Russia, would of been shouting the loudest about any kind of conspiracy. Funny how Russia never even raised a whisper about it. Makes you think really.

No, it's hollow and filled with Selenites. And Armstrong & Aldrin weren't the first to go there, read "First Men in the Moon" by H G Wells.

conspiracy theorists are everywhere online most are bored some are total lunatics

just check out lady diana,elvis,911,chemitrails,ect.....

[nebogipfel]

They all need a damn good thrashing from Buzz Aldrin

[Ags]

These false conspiracy theories are just a ploy to distract people from the real issue of the arrival of the giant planet Nibiru, which is hiding behind the sun! ;-)

[insomnia]

Its a conspiracy started by Otters, in preparation for when they make their move for world domination

[delsix]

I has a Serbian friend who was taught at school (albiet half heartedly) that it was a fake. soon put him straight.

@Ags

I for one welcome our new Nibiruan overlords

They all need a damn good thrashing from Buzz Aldrin

Or Buzz Lightyear....

The moon landings were faked. Here's the proof:

You gotta love the conspiracy theorists, for comedy value if nothing more.

[Tink_Archived]

makes you wonder why people would want to disprove what is probably mans greatest achievement !!

I'm not surprised at that - 40% of Americans believe that the Earth is only a few thousand years old and don't accept that human beings evolved from animals. But that's another debate, for another forum of course

[Dangerous-Dave]

A good time to post this.

YouTube - Buzz Aldrin Punches Bart Sibrel

[sbooder]

Careful posters, this thread is starting to go where it should not.

[MikeWilson]

Maybe so, but I think everyone should see that Buzz Lightyear (I mean, "Aldrin") video above

Quite right to warn us Simon

Keeping on topic, I thought that these LRO images were pretty amazing as well as conclusive:

NASA - LRO Sees Apollo Landing Sites

[MikeWilson]

Does anyone know why the landing sites all in a similar area? Surely there is much to be gained from landing at least one lander on the other side of the moon?

[omneferuss]

communication would have been difficult... terrain less well known for landing-site selection... dark half of the time.. no view of Earth..

Presumably, with the technology available at the time, communication would have been impossible, not just difficult, if they landed on the far side. They needed to be able to see the earth to be able to get a message back to it. Hence the radio blackout when the orbiter went behind the moon.

Not a place to be stuck alone with 1960s technology and no view of home!

Its already been pointed out that there are UFO bases there......I suppose the high risk of astronaut abduction overruled a visit to the other side, pity really because the cheese has more holes in it on that side
