The Moon Landing-Fact or Fiction?

Discussion in 'Off-Topic Lounge' started by THE STUD, Jul 21, 2009.

  1. Well what do you think?...Fact or A big one in your face Fiction made up to get one up and over on the old U.S.S.R :D

    Personally and this is coming from a Brit who was just a twinkle in his old mans eye 40 years ago...Well for 3 years anyways ;)

    I think a big whopping load of Fiction...Technology back then was like nowhere like it is today and as they have never set foot on the moon since and never did back then either imho and never been near it since well kinda obvious thats it was a massive hoodwink to the world :D

    I say fact, but mostly because I want to believe that something as big as that wouldn't be faked, and that my government isn't a big bowl of lies.

    Why don't you go buy Lunar Module 3D and that should tell you how many missions have been made to the moon.

    I looked this up online and found a site which explained all the little things that people use as evidence when pointing out the landing was faked.

    The moon landing was staged.

    The Earth is flat.

    Elvis is alive.

    They found Jimmy Hoffa.

    UFO's and aliens are all covered up by the government.

    David Icke was right and the world is led by shape shifting lizards.

    You mean like stars not showing up and the flag blowing?

    Stars wouldn't show up because of exposure.

    The flag was blowing because there is no air resistance, so the flag would still wave as it was being put in.

    Yeap stuffs like that.
    They were all explained except the theory that NASA deliberately killed the astronauts in that fire, apparently the author was too angry to write a coherent reply.

    I have no doubt in my mind that it happened. Every single reason that people think it is fake is eaisily explained. And the idea that we did not have enough knowledge and resources then is just a lie. We were encouraged by the Space Race with Russia, it was enough to speed us up to do it. Do you really think that the government could get hundreds, probably thousands of people in the space program to keep their mounth's shut? It would have been proven a fake landing 39 years ago. And then, there is the Mythbusters thing ;). This is my opinion, of course, but I strongly beleive this. I had a Spanish teacher once, and he would try to prove to us why we never walked on the moon. He drew diagrams of what he thinks happened. So, there were a lot of questions from the class on this, he couldn't answer one supporting the theory that we didn't land on the moon :p.

    By the way, any photographer knows that the stars were just underexposed. The moon is bright, so they have to expose for the moon surface. Unless they took multiple exposures for a HDR (High Dynamic Range), they could not get the stars and the moon in one properly exposed picture.

    I guess its just soooo cool to believe in conspiracy theories. They will always exist no matter how ridiculous they are.
