Nice way to prove your point ;-)

I actually know several people (or knew) that didn't believe it was real. They were all older (like in their 80s), and there was NO convincing them, through pictures, videos or anything else that it was real.

What if it wasn't, and we've believed a big fat, moon dusty lie?

I have an absolute, infallible, 100-percent-positive, inescapable argument that we did IN FACT go to the moon. Guess what it is :)

Several hundred pounds of rock and soil, scattered throughout hundreds of museums, labs and universities throughout the world, having been studied extensively by thousands of experts from dozens of fields, that could have come from nowhere in the solar system except the moon?

Unless... all those specialists and institutions are just part of the conspiracy.

Nope :)

I heard that the moon doesn't actually exist and that it's gaffa taped to the night sky as a silver disc with LED lights. It was put up there by NASA in order for us to believe the lunar landing. Most people in their 80's said there was no such thing as a moon in their lifetime. The same company that made the moon also made orbs...true story ;-)

And the reason there is INDISPUTABLE PROOF that the moon landing actually happened is that....

If Nixon couldn't keep Watergate covered up, how the #*%^*&$ &#%$ would he keep...

MOONGATE!!!!!!!!!

...covered up. The Democratic Party would have been SOOOO OVER THAT in the next election!!! We can't get the two parties to agree on lunch, much less agree to what would be the biggest cover up in the history in the world!!!!!! Agree? :)

Totally agree :-)

I'll be brave enough to state that I don't believe man has stepped foot on the moon. I used to believe like most people, but when I saw the photos (and lack of) I began to suspect. Think about some of the evidence...

Less than 50 photos have ever been shown to the public even though it was one of man's greatest achievements. Not even one time did an astronaut turn the camera up and take a photo of the stars. Several photos show lighting from multiple sources.

Every major event the media is given a live feed, but for the Apollo missions their requests were refused. Although video was relatively primitive by todayâ��s standards, the footage of Armstrongâ��s first steps was way behind quality of the day. And had it been a technical glitch it wasnâ��t fixed for later shoots.

No photos or video shows a blast crater under the lunar lander, although many NASA scientists were nervous that the lander might fall into the hole it created. Tests on Earth the unit created depressions several feet deep. The images of Apollo II and subsequent missions the lander looks as though is was just placed there with no ground disturbance even though the surface had a power like consistency.

No one could have gone thru the Van Allen radiation belts and survived without protection from several inches of lead to protect them, and parts of Apollo 11 were less than the thickness of 25 sheets of aluminum foil.

Even with the United States having granted asylum to several Nazi war criminals/scientists such as Wernher von Braun in exchange for their help developing a US rocket program they were still way behind the Soviets in Rocket technology. Most experts agree the US was almost a decade behind, so the faking of the moon mission was major motivation for the mass deceit.

There is quite a lot of more evidence out there if one would open their mind and look at it.

Video

wiki - too much text! Interesting videos and images on the above link.

BTW, why have NASA never gone back to the moon?
