Well I am telling my age, but I watched all the manned missions: Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo. It took years and massive research and technical development to put a man on the moon. It was more our way of winning the space race during the cold war. If you were not alive then, you will not fully understand the fear of nuclear war we had. We had duck and cover drills in school 2 times a week.
Back to the moon missions.
I tried to find it again, but I have seen Hubble telescope photos of the landing site for Apollo 11, the first mission.
There is a large telescope in Europe who also has researched and found it.
Note too, if it was fake, the Russians would have been all over us in world publicity to discredit us. It was a major blow for us to get there first. After that, they gave up.
I was 14 when I watched Neil Armstrong step on the moon.
God willing, I will see a man step on Mars.
Believe it. We really did it.
If you were alive then you would have no doubts.

It's not a matter of opinion. It's a matter of scientific fact. We did land on the Moon.
Contrary to what conspiracy theorists like to say, we don't have to take the government's word about the landings. Consider the following:
1) Apollo 11 left a reflector on the lunar surface. This reflector, which is used to determine the Earth-Moon distance, has been detected thousands of times by astronomers on Earth.
2) Independent radio observatories (even in the Soviet Union) were able to detect the Apollo radio transmissions coming from the Moon. If there wasn't a ship on the Moon, this would not have been possible.
3) The Moon rocks have been positively identified as being of lunar origin.
4) Not a single reputable scientist rejects the lunar landings. Would it not be scientists who would be the first to pick up on discrepancies in the photos or in NASA's claims? Instead, scientists vigorously defend the landings.
Evidence can't get any more incontrovertible than that.
This evidence proves, to the highest scientific standard, that we went to the Moon. There isn't a shred of scientific evidence that says that we didn't go.

ya it's true
some peoples object it
on some basis
such as movement of flag,seeing no stars in the photo etc
but theese things are proved to be fake
for eg
some asked how th flag moved in moon where there is no air
the ans was dat the space craft was releasing some air due to som unknown facts which moved the flag
some asked why they couln't see any stars in mon where the is no air(air hinders viwing of stars)
the ans was dat their cornea reduced in the high illumination of surface of moon so....
all the fact Russians said was proved to be wrong
so it's true

Mankind never stepped foot on the moon. Only the boots of his spacesuit.
