This question comes back over and over again. Such denial and the conspiracy theory for 911 are part of an ongoing anti-American campaign.
The signals from the Apollo missions were picked up by many stations around the world, including Russia, as it is necessary for any space mission, because of Earth's rotation.
Those missions happened during the cold war. Had they been fake the Russians would have gladly spread the news at that time.

For the love of god yes.
The Soviet Union would have caught any fraud and had a field day with it.
The American space program was open for all the world to watch. The capacity to get people to the moon was developed in well documented intermediary stages. With all failures and successes fully acknowledged by the rival programs sponsors.

We North Americans (I say North Americans because half the people at NASA are Canucks) are a pretty smart lot. Smart enough to get people onto the moon, but not smart enough to cover up such a huge hoax. In other words, if it was a hoax, we'd all know about it by now.

Yes of course.
The theory that they never went could be a little more believable if they hadn't repeated it many times.
If you were trying to hoax the world that you were the first nation to the moon, why risk exposure by repeating it many times (to the point where everyone got bored with it anyway).

Yes, I do. The government would never finance a hoax like that. There are just to many people involved that could have blown that kind of cover if it were not true.

Yes, I believe they did because I saw a show on the science channel that proved all the things they said weren't true were indeed real.

Of course we did! The astronauts set up laser reflectors on the moon, and NASA engineers can use those reflectors today!

I was a believer that man had reached moon. But recently my friend told about some things which forces you to think.
Like the flag waving on moon which has no atmosphere.

Of course they did, the government would never tell a lie like that, to the people.
