Sorry to say that I for one don't think it happen...I watched when it was going on in 1969..I would like to believe it, but I just don't think it did...There is talk of a mirror or some reflector they left on the moon and this is prouf..but then we have items on Mars but no man put them there in person..the tec was quite good for visual effects during that time...we lived in an age that whatever was on tv was in fact for real..just like we thought that Rob and Laura were really married

Although my wife's father did performed fuel calculations for the original Apollo landing, I'll spare you that speech. Instead, I will encourage you to watch two programs. The first show is called Conspiracy Moon Landing that it currently showing on the National Geographic Channel and it pretty much obliterates all of the popular conspiracy theories.
I would also encourage you to watch a movie called Capricorn One. Made it 1978, it is a fictional movie about a fake mission to mars. Although it is a science fiction story, it is a good example of how utterly impossible it would be to fake a moon landing for any length of time.
12 men walked on the moon from 1969 to 1972 and we simply have neither the resources nor the technology to pull off that big of a hoax for so long. Hundreds of thousands of people have worked on the space program. It would be far easier to put someone on the moon than to try and fake it and keep it secret for nearly 40 years.
The landings came at a time when our space program was ultra competitive with the former Soviet Union. Remember how big of a deal it was when Sputnik was put into orbit? The Soviet Union and East Germany had the technology to monitor our moon shots and transmissions. Don't you think they would have called is out if they have evidence that it was all fake?
Perhaps the most definitive proof of our trips to the moon is what we left behind. For the last 30+ years, scientists have been beaming lasers to the moon and measuring the return times. How are they doing this? Because the beams are reflected back by equipment left on the moon in 3 different locations on 3 different trips.
Case closed.

It's an city legend. NEIL A. ARMSTRONG LEBANON, OHIO 45036 July 14,1983 Mr. Phil Parshall Director Asian Research Center International Christian Fellowship 29524 Bobrich Livonia, Michigan 48152 Dear Mr. Parshall: Mr. Armstrong has requested me to answer on your letter and to thanks for the courtesy of your inquiry. The studies of his conversion to Islam and of listening to the voice of Adzan at the moon and somewhere else are all unfaithful. Several guides in Malaysia, Indonesia and different nations have released those studies with out verifi- cation. We make an apology for any inconvenience that this incompetent journalism will have precipitated you. Subsequently, Mr. Armstrong agreed to perform a mobilephone interview, reiterating his response to those studies. I am enclosing copies of the United States State Department's communications earlier to and after that interview. Sincerely Vivian White Administrative Aide

It was real. Back when it happened, there was not the technology to fake it well like there is today. Plus, there was a mirror left on the moon that is being used even today to measure the distance between the moon and the earth (it is changing, albeit slowly). The only way it could have gotten there was to be left by an astronaut.

why was the flag waiving if there's no atmosphere on the moon?? ; who took the pic?? ; if they had the technology to go to the moon, they didn't have the technology to fake it (a little illogical)?? and many other questions come up... no doubt they reached the Moon; but on that exact date, not 100% sure...

I think too many people were involved to fake it. It would involve having to keep too many mouths shut. I don't think any one actually 'involved' has come out and said it was a fake, and if they did they would definitely get a lot of attention.

Fake, and my best friend's dad, of whom was a professional photographer, proved it by exposing the photographs as staged via shadows that were staggered due to multiple lighting...

Come on! Well the thousands of witnesses who watched them climb into the rocket, and then watch it disappear into the atmosphere would probably tell you it was true....
Oh yeah, and then there is the fact that it was all live on tv! (Thanks to Australia's Parks Observatory!!)

Yes, they were really there.
For everything that happens-there are the weirdos that say it didn't.
It makes me sick to hear those say the Holocaust never happened.
I KNOW it did- I lost family to it....that was no hoax.
