In July of 1969, Armstrong of Apollo 11 was the first man to set foot on the moon. Aldrin and Collins were fellow astronauts on the historic flight. Rory Emerald, the well known celebrity, had always wanted to be an astronaut. If it wasn’t for severe problems with flatulence and incontinence, he may well have been the first man on the moon. He was highly regarded by both NASA and the US Air force, and his ability to withstand punishment made him an ideal candidate. His discharge from the Space Program was reluctantly made, as his flatulence made him a “high risk” space traveler. Rory Emerald took the discharge badly, and for years was bitter about the whole space program, speaking out against it on many occasions. When Armstrong and Aldrin received special medals from the President, Rory Emerald was violently discharged from the proceedings for “mooning” all the delegates, which he felt was the ultimate ironic statement. His untimely flatulence while in the act of mooning was met with disgust by several attendees of the festivities.
Later, while Rory Emerald worked for Fox TV Network, he produced the highly watched television event, “Man on the Moon?” which attempted to prove that the moon landing was a giant hoax. It had a lot of telling footage, most of it generated by Rory Emerald himself. He has since produced the best selling non-fiction work entitled “Man on the Moon – NOT!!!!”.

Three Astronauts flew on Apollo 11, Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins. While Collins stayed in orbit in the command module, Armstrong and Aldrin landed in the lunar module, becoming the first people to walk on the Moon. Armstrong was the first to step out of the lunar module so he gets all the press, but personally I think Aldrin was more worthy of the honor, given how Armstrong has kept to himself and Aldrin has been an active advocate for space exploration ever since.
After that, Apollos 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17 took eighteen more men to the Moon, ten of whom walked on the surface (Apollo 13 did not land due to a mechanical failure which was portrayed very accurately in the movie "Apollo 13"). Read all about it in the Apollo Lunar Surface Journal.

have u seen photographs of niel armstrong on the moon ???????
Then u wud have noticed ......
There are no stars in the background from pictures taken on the Moon.
Issue 4 :
In some images, a huge light source can be seen reflected in the astronaut's visors. This has to be a very bright, nearby source. There is no possibility of external light source in moon.
- How could NASA take TV images of the LM ascending on Apollo 15, 16, and 17 if there was no one on the Lunar surface to man the camera?
ISSUE 6 - There can't be any pictures taken on the Moon because the film would melt in the 250� temperatures. Any film exposed to 250� would indeed melt at that temperature.
Issue-7 : The LM engine was very powerful. How come it did not leave a crater below the spacecraft? Why didn't it kick up any dust when it landed?
issue 8: The footprints left by the astronauts are proof that the Moon landings are fake.
This one is also essentially a two pronged argument. First, the Fox show charged that the LM engine was so powerful that the upper layer of dust should have been blown away around the LM, so there should not be any footprints. Others have charged that the footprints should not be there since in the absence of water as a bonding agent, they should not maintain coherent shapes and sharp outlines.
issue 9: There is no dust on LM footpads. -- According to Kaysing and Fox, this is the strongest evidence that the Moon landings are faked. They allege that with the swirling dust from LM descent engine, the foot pads should be covered with dust.
issue 11 :
The pictures below show that flags are waving. And they never will. The flag was on the airless Moon, just as we all knew.
THERE ARE MANY MORE ISSUES ON THIS,
BUT
THOSE ARE TOO TECHNICAL FOR US.
�..NEIL ARMSTRONG WAS NOT THE FIRST PERSON TO LAND ON MOON

Neil Armstrong was The First Man to set foot on the Moon, Buzz Aldrin & Michael Collins were the 2 other members of the Apollo11 Crew that made the first Lunar Landing on July 20th 1969 Rory Emerald was NOT part of that crew.

Armstrong was the first one out of the lunar lander. Buzz Aldrin went with him and was second, while Michael Collins got stuck orbiting the moon in the command module waiting for them to come up from the surface and all go home.
To refute the idiotic notions that some people have that no one ever went to the moon:
... There is no possibility of external light source in moon. --
-What about that thing we have called the Sun?!?!? Yeah it's huge too relative to the moon or earth.
...How could NASA take TV images of the LM ascending on Apollo 15, 16, and 17 if there was no one on the Lunar surface to man the camera?
-How can anyone ever take pictures without being behind the camera...never happens oh wait yeah it can with timers and programming.
...There can't be any pictures taken on the Moon because the film would melt in the 250� temperatures.
- Even cameras can be insulated just like most equipment was.
...Why didn't it kick up any dust when it landed?
-Gee, remember the radio transmissions: "...drifting a little...kicking up some dust...Tranquility base here... the eagle has landed.
...the footprints left by the astronauts are proof that the Moon landings are fake.
-Um what? I remember walking in the desert and leaving footprints in all sorts of sand from grit to baby powder consistency. No water, but still footprints.
...There is no dust on LM footpads. -- According to Kaysing and Fox, this is the strongest evidence that the Moon landings are faked. They allege that with the swirling dust from LM descent engine, the foot pads should be covered with dust.
--How the heck is dust going to swirl without air to swirln in?
...The pictures below show that flags are waving. And they never will.
-No video shows an untouched flag "waving" . The flags used had a rod through the top to keep the canvas spread out. Everytime an astronaut touched it, it sent vibrations through the metal shaking the whole thing.
YES People HAVE been to the moon and Armstrong was the first one to walk on its surface.

The Apollo 11 mission was the first manned mission to land on the Moon. It was the fifth human spaceflight of Project Apollo and the third human voyage to the Moon. It was also the second all-veteran crew in manned spaceflight history. Launched on July 16, 1969, it carried Commander Neil Alden Armstrong, Command Module Pilot Michael Collins and Lunar Module Pilot Edwin Eugene 'Buzz' Aldrin, Jr. On July 20, Armstrong and Aldrin became the first humans to land on the Moon, while Collins orbited above. The mission fulfilled President John F. Kennedy's goal of reaching the moon by the end of the 1960s, which he expressed during a speech given before a joint session of Congress on May 25, 1961: "I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth."

Buzz Aldrin was supposed to step on the moon first but his senior officer Neil Armstrong pulled rank and the rest as they say is history.
