Do u believe that there is really a moon landing conspiracy after all master tapes of the event went missing?

Answer 1

I can't speak for the missing tapes, but I am fairly confident that we actually did land on the Moon. After all, we don't have Columbus' sea diaries, but we don't doubt that he sailed across the Atlantic and explored the Caribbean.


The moon landing was real. There are three types of reliable evidence. The first two concern material, the third concerns the testimony of reliable witnesses and accurately calibrated instruments.

1) Moon rocks we brought back. We have other Moon rocks that were not brought here by humans, they were ejected from the moon by meteor impacts and then fell to Earth. Reputable scientists the world over have examined them and confirmed that they are the same age, composition, type, etc, and that they were formed under the same conditions, which do not exist anywhere on Earth.

2) Artifacts we left there, like the laser reflectors, and the radio transponders of the landing stages of the LEM's etc. They had to be precisely positioned to operate correctly, so they were not just dumped from orbit.

3) The Soviets tracked our spacecraft on their own radar system and watched us land and take off again. They were our rivals in the Space Race, and they would genuinely have loved to humiliate us by telling the world that we faked it. They would have if they could. But they knew we made it there. They watched us, and they saw it, through their own instruments.

The flag was flapping when it unrolled due to a metal spring that was included to hold it out extended. It was flapping when the LEM lifted off due to the exhaust gasses (temporary atmosphere) blowing past it. Any more questions?

Tell everybody you know that we did land on the Moon. I'm proud to be an American!

Maybe they just re-used the tapes and recorded over them in an emergency, like the Apollo 13 emergency.

Answer 2

No.
If the moon landing was a conspiracy, the master tapes would not have gone missing - the perpetrators of the conspiracy would simply have made new ones rather than shine a light of suspicion on themselves.
Secondly, the landing took place at the height of the cold war and the space race between the Soviet Union and the United States - you don't seriously think the Soviets didn't confirm this most embarrassing defeat with every possible method they had at their disposal.

Answer 3

Am I convinced? no. Do I think they may be right, yes
