If we even ever did. It's just hard to believe that we actually went there, I mean it's just so far away.

Yes Neil Armstrong's footprints are still up there, right where he left them. If they build a telescope powerful enough for you to see the junk we left behind, would you believe then?

This is kind of silly. First of all, we do have plans to return to the moon by 2020. However, it's unlikely the landings will be at any of the same spots the Apollo missions landed. After all, none of them landed in the same spots.
Second, even if we did go back to those spots and filmed the stuff there to "prove" it, why would people who think we faked the first landings during a time when the technology didn't exist to make a good enough fake of it believe that it's real now, when filmmakers could easily fake the whole thing in their sleep?

There is no conspiracy. Astronauts went to the moon.
Consider:
-The radio telescopes around the world tracked the Apollo spacecraft. The telescopes had to turn and aim the dishes at the spacecraft all the way.
-The TV and movies that came back showing behaviour of dirt in low-gravity are very "accurate". (Sure, we can fake it now, but not as easily in 1969: look at the original Star Trek episodes! Even "2001", the best, most accurate sci-fi depiction of spaceflight up to the time, isn't as accurate depicting on the moon scenes).
-Also, three mirrors were left on the moon so that we can shoot lasers at them, see the returning light pulse, and compute the exact distance to the moon (which is changing.) If we never went to the moon, who left the mirrors?

Well I suspect that the hard core conspiracy believers would just say that the new missions brought along a fake 1969 flag and made fake footprints after they got there and then photographed it. But reasonable people don't need another mission. There is plenty of evidence now, pictures and video from the original missions, hundreds of pounds of Moon rock in Houston and in museums around the world, and so on.

Only retards doubt that we went to the moon. No one is going to spend billions of dollars just to make retards quit being skeptical, especially since the retards wouldn't believe it this time either -- even if you tied them up in a burlap sack and left them on the moon to freeze to death.
Which by the way is what we should do with the moon-doubting retards.
(No offense to actual retarded people, who are smart enough to know that the Apollo missions DID go to the moon).

There's no way to convince the numbskulls who insist on believing that all seven of the lunar landings were faked. The only way is to take each and every one of these idiots up there and let them see for themselves all the equipment left behind. Same thing for the so-called face on Mars.

If people didn't believe it the first time, what makes you think they would believe it if we did it again?

ahhh I hear no one's been there, but hey atleast they made a good cover up, IDK how they did all that moon scenary in a closed/gravity-free room. But whatever, it is what it is!
