The astronauts filmed each other. Since Armstrong took most of the pictures, it is usually Aldrin that is the one in the picture. The video of Armstrong descending the ladder was taken by a camera mounted on the outside of the LM and activated by Armstrong himself from the top of the ladder by pulling on a string attached to the camera and tied off at the top of the ladder.

Friend, get this straight and don't be foolish about it any more, okay? The basic technology required for a manned flight to the moon was developed in Germany in the late 1930s through the mid 1940s. This technology needed a lot of refinement to make a safe manned flight a reality.
We worked on that technology through the 1950s and 60s, and made the first flight in 1969. It all fits together, and if you read all the history and don't let the wackos lie to you, it will be impossible for you to continue to be fooled into believing that the moon missions did not take place.
The American people were much better educated and more intelligent in the 1960s and 70s than they are now, and it would never have occurred to NASA engineers and managers that 35 years later a bunch of ignorant dolts with nothing to do would come up with a stupid conspiracy theory stating that the moon landings were faked.
If that had occurred to them, I suspect they would have gone to the trouble to create a larger and more visible object of proof, to compensate for the decline in the quality of the American mind and its education that occurred during and after the Reagan presidency.
But there is a real physical proof available. The astronauts who landed on the moon left behind reflectors that are used every day by astronomers to measure the irregularities of the moon's orbit. This is done by bouncing laser beams off reflectors at known locations that were left by the astronauts. Ask your science teacher for information about these experiments. You can arrange to see this done with your own eyes.
Let me put the question to you this way: If you think the moon landings were faked, when did they become "fake?" When did the idea become popular that NASA had invented the idea of an imaginary moon mission and created a huge technological empire to fool people? When was all this fakery done? In the 60s? 70s? 80s?
And why? What was the point? And how did they fool all the people that reported the news, operated the machinery, built the moon rockets, and watched them take off and land?
Do you realize that one American in 500 was a part of the Apollo program? Millions of them are still alive. Are they fooling you? Why? If you go out to a football game, look around you. In the stadium there are people who worked on the Apollo program.
Ask around. You are surrounded by people who know for sure that American astronauts stood on the moon more than 35 years ago.

besides the very undeniable truth that my spouse's father accomplished gas calculations for the unique Apollo landing, i am going to spare you that speech. instead, i visit encourage you to observe 2 courses. the first teach is termed Conspiracy Moon landing that it at present showing on the nationwide Geographic Channel and it quite a lot obliterates all the nicely known conspiracy theories. i'd also encourage you to observe a movie called Capricorn One. Made it 1978, it truly is a fictional tale about a pretend project to Mars. besides the very undeniable truth that it truly is a technological awareness fiction tale, it truly is a reliable party of ways fully no longer accessible it will be to pretend a moon landing for any length of time. 12 adult men walked on the moon from 1969 to 1972 and we've neither the substances nor the technologies to pull off that enormous of a hoax for see you later. thousands of thousands of human beings have worked on the gap application. it will be far less complicated to positioned someone on the moon than to objective to pretend it and save it secret for virtually 40 years. The landings got here at a time even as our area application changed into extremely aggressive with the former Soviet Union. save in ideas how vast of a deal it changed into even as Sputnik changed into positioned into orbit? they'd the technologies to reveal screen our moon images and transmissions. do not you imagine they could have called us out in the adventure that they'd information that it changed into all pretend? perchance the most definitive information of our holiday to the moon is what we left in the back of. For the perfect 35+ years, scientists were beaming lasers to the moon and measuring the go back situations. How are they doing this? The beams are contemplated lower back by equipment left on the moon on at 3 different places. Case closed.

Stanley Kubrick. He was on the soundstage at Area 51 with his team after having completed '2001' and recruited by the Us govt to fake the moon landing to beat the russians before 1970.

Neil Armstrong's descent down the ladder of the lunar lander and then onto the moon's surface was filmed by a fixed camera on one of the lander's legs.

The camera was mounted on the LIM, so it was filmed from that remote location - I watched it on an old B&W set in 1969. It was an historic event that I will never forget as long as I live.

The images of Neil Armstrong climbing out of the lunar lander where caught by cameras mounted on the lunar lander. Other images of astronauts walking on the moon were taken by other astronauts or a mounted camera.

Dude, they had a video camera mounted on one of the landing legs -- that's why the video appears to be at a distance, rather than up close and personal the way news crews do it today.
