Why don't you believe the moon landing happened?!?

Question

I didn't even realize that people could possible refuse to believe one of the most important events in the history of mankind. I would like to know why you don't believe it, if you are of the it-never-happened mind-set? I'm not trying to offend anybody (to each his own, totally), I'm just shocked and horrified and would like to try to understand this mind-boggling phenomenon.

Answer 1

Why do you believe it?

Answer 2

I'm not saying they didn't land on the moon, but the pictures are fake.
Reasons:
The cameras the astronats were using were mounted directly to their spacesuits located on the chest. There was no way to look into it to center the target. All the pictures we see are perfectly centered. With the exception of perspective which contradicts the persective the camera would be at. Also, the astronats were wearing heavy gloves, which would make it very difficult to change film or make any adjustments. Yet, there are hundreds of pictures, which if you take into account time spent on the moon, had to be taken every 15 seconds. All this while they were also supposed to conduct experiments and inspect the moon. Figure in multiple light sources and identical rocks seen in different places, and it all points to fake pictures. NASA also claims there was NO retouching or enhancing done. They look pretty spectacular!
As for the video, there was no direct feed available for national TV. All the video you see is actually a monitor at NASA which was filmed by TV camera - second hand video. So that could be fake as well.
Why? NASA wanted to make sure we looked good in our finest hour, and also did not know what to expect. They played it safe.

All that being said, I think we did land on the moon. We (the public) just don't know what it looks like.

Answer 3

*The flag waved as if by technique of a breeze- without air on the moon, that could want to no longer have got here about. Yeah, and in case you watch it heavily, you'll be conscious that each and every time the flag waves, it is been hit by technique of between the astronauts. it is being disturbed by technique of them, no longer by technique of any form of breeze. *A rocket won't be able to propel an obect in the vacume of area, with no longer something to push adversarial to. you won't be able to be severe. Please study about physics. Oh, and area isn't a vacuum. it truly is filled, albeit carefully, with gases and different debris. *without ecosystem on the moon, the sky might want to were packed with stars, yet there have been none... before each thing, there is an ecosystem on the moon, albeit an rather skinny one. there are an rather good type of causes you do not see any stars in the sky, inspite of the undeniable fact that the customary one is the rationalization you do not see stars in the sky right here at cases - it is daylight hours and the solar obfuscates them. *exciting how the astronots were prefectly illuminated, the lighting fixtures targeted on them- as if they were on a valid level were they honestly completely illuminated? What does that even recommend? The solar can remove darkness from issues somewhat completely. *If we had the means to fly to the moon- why cant we bypass back? we may be able to bypass back. we've not for a myriad of causes, maximum having to do with the shortcoming of help our area application has gained in the previous 30 years and it is shift in concentration to the area holiday application. *If men had landed on the moon, the radiation from the solar must have killed them... constructive, in the adventure that they were bare. yet that's why they have those cumbersome matches that are designed to guard the astronauts from radiation poisoning. *It took all those rockets boosters to get to the moon, inspite of the undeniable fact that the lander itself truthfully flew back to earth It took all those rocket boosters (those self same rockets you merely claimed couldn't actually be used in the vacuum of area - please be consistent) to leave the Earth. once they were given some distance adequate faraway from the pull of earth, they did not desire those all those rockets any more effective. The moon has a lot less gravity than the Earth, so the destroy out speed is way decrease. For god's sake, please carry out a touch analyze instead of regurgitating the same 1/2-baked arguments that were bandied about for decades.

Answer 4

hellraiser... What "college" do you go to that you would actually win such a debate? How did you win, when you can hardly form a coherent sentence with proper grammar...

Your "evidence" is easily debunked with what most people call science... you can google that too. Maybe you'll learn something.

Listen, people who believe it didn't happen are simply incapable of free-thought... Or they are just too lazy to get both sides of the story... It's easier to believe conspiracy theory because it stirs our imaginations...

So, please I dare you, if you do not believe it happened I am open to any "evidence" you may have. And I will debunk the evidence to the best of my knowledge... which should be pretty sufficient seeing as how I am an aerospace engineer and work for a NASA contractor. I'm dead serious too. If you aren't afraid of your "evidence" then you'll "know" it should stand up to my criticism... I guarantee it won't though.

Answer 5

The reason that hellraiser won his debate was because he presented his argument well, whether or no it was true was not a consideration.
Assuming that the moon landings were faked-which they weren't- wouldn't it then make sense that those who faked it spent some time reviewing the tape and correcting any technical mistakes ?
This question should never allowed to be asked again.

Answer 6

People just can't believe that such phenomena can happen without characteristics of the earth (most notably the flag waving) and so believe it is fake. They believe such things are out of this world and couldn't happen, but that's the thing we were outside the earth we had and still have no idea how some things work once we leave our atmosphere.

oh and about the flag waving , camera outside, many lights bit N.A.S.A explains those phenomena here

they can also be proved in most secondary (High school for you Americans) laboratories.

Answer 7

I'd like to know what else aren't these people believing.

Do they not believe in television?
Do they not believe in cell phones?
Do they not believe in the automated car wash?
Do they not believe in airplanes?
Do they not believe in the electric toothbrush?
Do they not believe in the internet?
Do they not believe in microwave ovens?

Of course, I could go on and on, but, if you don't believe that humans beings are not making use of technology, then you DO NOT believe in any of the things that come from it.

Answer 8

What I don't belive is the fact that people feel the need to ask this question on here 5,000 times a day. You'd think there'd be nothing left of this dead horse to beat at this point but apparently not.

Additionally, you can read here the explainations for all the so called proof that it didn't happen:

Answer 9

Enough already with the moon landing "controversy." Somehow I just new Area 51 would appear in at least one of the answers.....go figure.

Answer 10

Because there are so many stories out there, so many movies debunking that it actually happened. So much "evidence" the flag waiving, the light and dark contrast in the photos, the lost footage, etc. We were in a race against Russia and a win might make the U.S. look better, especially on the verge of the great depression, etc. Speculation, fuels curiosity.

Answer 11

Evidence #1: Video shows American Flag waving in the wind when there is no wind on the moon.

Evidence #2 : ther have been numerous NASA officals come forward to testify that the moon landing was fake

Evidence #3. Many of the Craters featured in the video of armstrong on the moon are identical crates to Area 51

the list goes on
