i want to thank all of you who answered in my previous question, the links you provided did explain majority of the claims by the conspiracy theory. there is one more video that i came across, if you have links to explain this one... please provide them.

enough with the flag, i have already read the explainations of that. i'm more interested in this video.

I looked at the video and saw not one shred of evidence for trickery. I heard a lot of narration CLAIMING trickery, but not one shred of evidence actually on the video.
If the shot of earth was really a filled window portion of the whole planet, how come with all that camera movement EXACTLY the same cloud patterns are visible at all times? In low earth orbit you're travelling at 18000 mph, so the cloud patters should change constantly. The fact that the cloud patterns don't change is proof positive that the video was not shot from low earth orbit.

We certainly did go to the moon, laser reflectors were put in place during the Apollo 11 mission and are still there and we have been shooting laser pulses at these reflectors(mirrors) ever since.
We "ping" the moon with these laser pulses and measure the moons orbit and the earth and moon distance precisely.
A laser pulse targets these reflectors and the reflectors send the pulse straight back to where it came from and the telescope with computers intercept and record the returning pulses.
By doing these laser "experiments", we have traced the orbit of the moon and have learned that the moon is spiraling away from the earth at a rate of 3.8 cm per year, due to the earth's ocean tides.
We also have learned thru doing this that the universal force of gravity is very stable, the gravitational constant G has changed less than 1 part in 100 billion since the laser experiments began.
Then we get to the moon rocks that have been brought back, they have unique properties to them, they are irradiated and show the radiological effects that only come from long term constant bombardment from solar dust and cosmic radiation.
You can't fabricate that.
So to all those moon hoax landing conspiracy theorist's, try taking a science course or better yet, go and visit the Macdonald observatory and get informed, they have been doing these laser "tests" on the moon for decades.

interesting video.
but it only represents one idea of what might have been going on in that video, plus it never actually shows us the entire clip. instead it shows us bits and pieces and tells us what is going on, according to some conspiracy theorist.
the ego of some people. to think that they have outwitted an entire administration full of scientists and politicians. to be outdone by some person who thinks they know more aobut astrophysics than people who have studied it their whole lives.
sheesh.
anyways about the video.
first it claims that some third party is telling Neil Armstrong to talk. why can't that be nasa telling him to talk for the folks at home?
then the window. that is cool i must admit. for one thing the camera is moveable. so it could have been pressed up against the glass at one point and then just moved back at another time. or back far enough for an astronaut to try to point something out on earth but only succeeds in blocking the view slightly.
and one must ask why the heck would they go all the way into orbit just to pretend they went to the moon?? getting a huge ship like that into orbit is more than half the battle, it uses the most fuel just taking off.
i agree that the effect could have been created like the nice lady explained, and maybe a few shots were done like that. but i doubt it. more likely it is simply a hoax itself, with someone else putting in the "slates" with the dates that they want on them.
the van allen belts are not as dangerous as she seems to think either. yes there is high radiation in them but the ship was only in the belts for about an hour. not enough for a lethal dose.
the final shot in the clip of the camera zooming out showing the window and oh my there is a bright light coming from it. well the earth reflecting sunlight would be quite bright. also the interior lights would have been reflecting off of the glass then so that was likely the main thing that made the window look so bright, not the earth from a low orbit.
they also don't show clips from any of the other missions, nor does she ever mention the famous "earthrise" photo of the earth rising over the moon's horizon. nor does she explain how they made the moon miraculously get bigger as they got nearer to it. and eventually landed on it etc etc.
overall this video is just another weak attempt to beat down the moon landings. people should know better by now.

So the astronauts weren´t expert cameramen. So what? They were pilots! This video is total nonsense. Also it is extremely poor quality so the "proof" isn´t exactly evident anyway. I hope this is part of some "real" documentary and wasn´t produced exklusively for the web. Otherwise It is beyond me why anyone should pay any attention to it. Meanwhile take a look at this photo.

Se the stars? I do. But there shouldn´t be any because it was all shot in a studio... Don´t waste anymore time on this nonsense.

Wow, yet another "mysterious video" that miraculously "proves" that we never went to the moon. Oooh, all those scary scenarios about the Van Allen radiation belts . . . pshaw.
And it has been conveniently labelled to show that it was a hoax by NASA themselves. Wow. Gee, in these modern days of computerized imagery, there is no way anyone might have doctored the "film" to fit their own warped agenda, is there?
Ho-hum. Too bad that all the explanations of that nice lady are so much horse manure. It all sounds so reasonable, but any intelligent, educated mind would rapidly see through all the garbage.

Salaam, sister, the moon is between the marvellous creation of Allah(swt). Its haram to assert that Allah is the moon god or something. What does Allah, say in Quran with regard to the moon? He says that He has created the moon for us mankind, to maintain song of the time, and count extensive type the days( years and months). So Allah(swt) says that moon isn't something greater desirable than a blessing to us, which additionally provides mild interior the darkness, merely like the sunlight provides heat and lightweight temperature. and additionally, might issues in Islam, like fasting etc, can purely be accompanied by skill of lunar calender by way of fact Allah has chosen to lead us, throughout the lunar calender. Allah says in Quran,"while certainly one of u sites the recent moon, its needed for u to speedy". And prophet(s.a.w)'s popular colour replaced into green, additionally development a mosque relies upon the architect and the situation the place they build it, for this reason the moon interior the mosque does not incredibly relate with something in Islam. And sister, particular Allah is the superb of all and we would desire to consistently no longer bow to any different than him. yet Allah, asked the angels to bow for the newly created Adam(A.S) just to aim their obedience. And all of us understand how Shaytan, rebelled and disobeyed Allah.

OK, I believe that NASA put a flag and that flag was blowed by solar winds.
PS Don't blame me if this is a bad answer because I'm only 10.

Just watch the History Channel (I think) program that explains all away the myths, including the flag one.

You're free to believe what you wish; there's not much we can do on the net to prove (one way or the the other) if it happened or not.
I'm firm in my belief that we did; I've met astronauts, I *worked* for one of the guys who walked on the moon, and to think that such people *faked* something they're so proud of... I just can not believe it.

You were watching Capricorn One like my mother who never believed we went either. Its insulting not only to NASA but to those men who risked their lives to plant a flag up there.. conspiracy theory should be buried in the ground to cultivate crops cause they are so full of it.
(ps. the flag was wired like that so it looked like it was unfurling.. :::geesch what do they teach children in schools these days:::
