how did that do that moon hoax thing then?

Question

I've seen the pictures of the studio lights casting shadows in all the wrong places on the moon and so on, but how did they fit all those big studio lights in that tiny little luney lander?

so did they film the hoax itself on the moon or what?

Answer 1

They went to the moon and then pretended they filmed it in a studio. But they screwed up. They accidentally got some stars in the pictures when there was supposed to be only a studioroof there.

Answer 2

They didn't need to do any of those things because the moon landings were real.

1) Twelve 12 American astronauts have walked on the moon.

Apollo 11: Neil Armstrong & Buzz Aldrin
Apollo 12: Pete Conrad & Alan Bean
Apollo 13: << failed to land on the moon >>
Apollo 14: Alan Shepard & Edgar (Ed) Mitchell
Apollo 15: David Scott & James Irwin
Apollo 16: John Young & Charles Duke
Apollo 17: Eugene (Gene) Cernan & Harrison Schmidt


2) Why haven't we been back?

a) American astronauts visited the moon on six occasions.

b) The "moon race" was an extension of the cold war. It was mostly about national prestige. We got there first and achieved our primary objective. There was some good science: surveys, measurements, sample collection. But it was mostly about being there first. Once we achieved our primary objective, there was no political will to go back. There still isn't. Perhaps, if we discover He3 or something else valuable, there will be.

c) I used to travel to Crested Butte, Colorado every year to ski. Because I don't go anymore, does it mean that I never went?


3) What about the Van Allen radiation belts? Wouldn't it have killed the astronauts?

The existence of the Van Allen radiation belts postulated in the 1940s by Nicholas Christofilos. Their existence was confirmed in *1958* by the Explorer I satellite launched by the USA.

The radiation in the Van Allen radiation belts is not particularly strong. You would have to hang out there for a week or so in order to get radiation sickness. And, because the radiation is not particularly strong, a few millimeters of metal is all that is required for protection. "An object satellite shielded by 3 mm of aluminum will receive about 2500 rem (25 Sv) per *year*."

"In practice, Apollo astronauts who travelled to the moon spent very little time in the belts and received a harmless dose. [6]. Nevertheless NASA deliberately timed Apollo launches, and used lunar transfer orbits that only skirted the edge of the belt over the equator to minimise the radiation." When the astronauts returned to Earth, their dosimeters showed that they had received about as much radiation as a couple of medical X-rays.


4) The U.S. government scammed everyone?

In 1972, there was a politically motivated burglary of a hotel room in the Watergate Hotel in Washington, D.C. There were only about six or eight people who knew about it. However, those people, including Richard M. Nixon, the President of the United States, failed to keep that burglary a secret. It exploded into a scandal that drove the President and a number of others from office.

If six or eight people couldn't keep a hotel room burglary a secret, then how could literally thousands of people could have kept their mouths shut about six faked moon landings? Not just one moon landing, but six of them!


5) What about the USSR?

Even if NASA and other government agencies could have faked the six moon landings well enough to fool the general public, they could NOT have fooled the space agency or military intelligence types in the USSR. The Soviets were just dying to beat us. If the landings were faked, the Soviets would have re-engineered their N-1 booster and landed on the moon just to prove what liars Americans are. Why didn't they? Because the landings were real and the Soviets knew it.


6) Why does the flag shake? Where are the stars? Who took the video of Neil Armstrong?

Take a look at the first two websites listed below. They deal well with all of the technical questions.


7) Finally, please tell us what you would accept as definitive evidence that the six moon landings were real. Is there anything?

Answer 3

Did you just ask how they planned and performed a hoax of the moon landing, on the moon?
I might be a little shabby with my English, but im pretty sure that "hoax" means that someone pretends to do a promised activity. Not; doing the promised activity just so you can fake doing said activity, in fact I think you would need to take crazy pills to go to all the trouble of going to the moon, just to fake going to the moon.

Answer 4

is harder to cover up a hoax like that than send a bunch of guys to the moon... just think in all the people involved in the creation of the Saturn, the eagle module, the lander all the guys in NASA... any one should said something any time... they said that Kubrick shot the fake landing, but if he would did it, I'm way sure that it will ended better than the actual landing and he wouldn't fail in the lighting.
so, there is no hoax until you can prove it

Answer 5

Threre was no Moon Hoax we actualy landed on the moon. I am sure of It there is too much evidence to show that we did land on the moon. If it was faked why fake 5 more. We would no fake it becuase the only thing worse then failing to get to the moon would be caught faking it by Russia. We landed on the moon thats a fact.

Answer 6

The whole moon hoax bit was started by the Flat Earth Society. The pictures of a round earth kind of shot them down. If you believe it was a hoax, your society awaits you. I'm not sure what the dues are.

Answer 7

I don't want to get into proving that its real as everything you need to know is out there, but its an insult to the brave men who risked their lives to land on the moon and went down in history for either dying trying or completed the mission.

One small step for man; one giant leap for mankind.

Don't be one more person to diminish that pride.

Answer 8

They would also have had to fake the other 5 landings and the Apollo 13 near-disaster. And hope that all the other people (allies and enemies) who were tracking the trips kept quiet about it. That's a lot of hope.
Sorry, but I can't think of any reason why it would be faked.

Answer 9

They didn't. They used sunlight, that's all. Just one light source. Think about it - multiple light sources don't give different direction shadows, they give MULTIPLE shadows. But uneven terrain gives the impression of uneven shadows.

Answer 10

i believed in the moon landings since i was a kid but now my view has changed because i've seen so much hard evidence to support otherwise and NASA never retaliate with evidence to prove that these conspiracy theorists are talkin hogwash.they retaliate by calling them crackpots and nuts very scientific of them .
