The evidence against is actually proof. The Moon, rocket fuel, etc. all would act differently than Hollywood could anticipate.
See Skeptics Magazine and Skeptical Inquirer for pros and cons.
For instance, the hammer on the astronaut's belt swings as it would in a lower gravity. It looks fake, but shows they are in a lower gravity.
Things like inertial guidance system use in airliners, scientific papers all would be hard to fake and who would have thought to write them otherwise?

Un-freakin-believeable. That in this modern day and age this BS still finds an audience.
Yes, we landed on the moon. Ask the Russians, our sworn enemies at the time, if it was a hoax. If we'd faked it, they'd have been blasting it all over the world for the last 37 years!!!

There was a 'special' on Fox years ago supposidly exposing loads or proof that the lunar landing was a hoax, and the show used NASA's photo and video footage to try and prove that it was all staged.
This show was actually a hoax and had alot of false information and fake footage, which was all shown in the making on the Discovery channel.

Yes. Its impossible to fake everything like that, all the publicity and the landing itself. I don't know all of the conspiracy theories, but one of them is that the flag stands out straight, but there's no wind on the moon so how could this be?
It's because the scientists knew there's be no weather, and so the flag would look good in the pictures, they put it on an L shaped pole so it would stand out straight.

Yes, there are rumors it was fake.
There are also documents, photographs, movies, Moon rocks, and people who actually walked on the Moon that all say it was real.

Yes, NASA really did land on the moon. And while we're at it: Yes, planes really flew into the WTC towers.
