I saw a documentary where they tried to prove that it was just cinema, specialists from different domains were interviewed, it was very interesting, after I saw it, I no longer believe that men ever landed on the moon. It was just propaganda in the cold war era.

at the beginning many persons the two watched the landing on television and or the launch in individual or participated interior the layout or implementation. there are particularly some rock samples that are no longer Terran in commencing place that have been added back and different pictures. The documentation touching directly to the project and all documents are in public area or accessible for the period of the liberty of suggestion act. If investment became into accessible, yet another project could be fastened to the moon to verify the unique landing internet site. This all provides as much as evidence and the section approximately it being "interior the sky" has no relevance the two to the moon landing or the existence of any god(s). on the different hand, the only element verifiable from the bible archaeologically speaking are most of the city places. The Exodus has no evidence for it stumbled on, even nevertheless most of the properly be attentive to places referenced in it have been excavated. not one of the worldwide huge miracles such because of the fact the solar combating are recorded with the aid of the different way of existence, etc.

This isn't a matter of belief. It's a matter of incontrovertible scientific fact. We did land on the Moon. There isn't a shred of legitimate evidence against the landings, while there's a mountain of scientific evidence that proves, to the highest standard, that we did go.

We don't have to take the word of the government that we went. There is an abundance of independent evidence in favor of the landings. Consider:
1) Apollo 11 left a reflector on Mare Tranquilitas. This reflector, used to measure the distance to the Moon, has been detected thousands of times by astronomers.
2) Independent radio telescopes were able to detect the Apollo transmissions coming from the Moon. If there wasn't a ship on the Moon, they wouldn't have detected anything except silence.
3) The Moon rocks have been confirmed to be lunar in origin.
4) No reputable scientist rejects the landings. Do you not think that scientists would be the first to pick up on something fishy?

On the other hand, conspiracy theorists will use bad science and bias to support their allegations. These claims are ignorant and preposterous, and, ironically, only prove that we did go to the Moon.

Mercy, if you'd only been there...

This "moon landing story" is the finest example of what man is capable of when driven, even if it might have arguably been for the wrong reason (to beat the Soviet Union). It took a quarter-million people 12 years to do it. If you had witnessed it, not just the 6 successful missions but the events leading up to it, you would be laughing at anyone who claimed it was faked - utterly impossible.

Let me put it this way - even though I have no reason to believe so and there is lots of evidence to believe otherwise, I believe there is the tiniest chance that, somehow, some wierd string of events occurred such that my mother, no almost 70 years old, might possibly not be my real mother. But I don't think there is any possibility at all that the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo missions were faked in any way. Way too much evidence to believe otherwise. I'm serious. Don't be a fool.

Doubt no longer, bold young person. Human beings did indeed 'land' on our moon, the modest beginnings of the brave and imaginative space travel to come once sanity reins again in the White House. Keep in mind that, at the time of the first landing, in 1969, the 'Cold War' was alive and threatening--had the landing not been actual, the USSR, which also hoped to put its flag down there, would have merrily told the world.

Did they also fake the 3 deaths in Apollo 1, and the near disaster of Apollo 13? Why pretend to go to the Moon 6 times, and risk being exposed on each occasion.

The originators of the "Moon Landing Conspiracy" were members of the Flat Earth Society, whose whole premise of existence (the Flat Earth theory) would be proved utterly false by the pictures of the Earth from the Moon. Therefore, they began a concerted campaign to prove that the Moon landings were faked.

Then I suggest you go and educate yourself about how it was done. All the conspiracy theories are utter garbage, based on ignorance, misunderstanding and doubt. Many of the most prominent conspiracy theory proponents are outright frauds and liars (I am not making that accusation lightly: it is based on personal experience of them). The most common arguments are just pure ignorance. Stars don't show up in pictures because they are too dim to be picked up along with the brightly lit lunar surface. The flag doesn't wave, or even move at all, unless an astronaut touches it (and in any case, why would NASA be stupid enough to try faking a vacuum in a studio with a hefty breeze blowing?). The film categorically could not have been faked by slowing it down. And so on.

Apollo is a highly technical achievement. It is not a subject that can be judged intuitively. If you read around the subject and learn abou the scale of the project and the developments it entailed you'll become quite convinced it was real. I started researching it because I started having doubts after seeing some 'documentaries' about it being faked. My research instead convinced me of the truth of Apollo.

I sat the tracking console at Goddard ,and they went to the moon. They also left a special mirror on the moon . I later worked with a group that checked the range on that mirror almost every day.

If you learn something about it, it is pretty much impossible for it to be a hoax. If you've ever seen the dude who came up with this story, he's this crusty old bird who lives in a trailer out in the desert with 200 cats and claims he worked for NASA a couple of weeks sometime in the past. His "photo analysis" is beyond moronic.

It totally happened. The men who landed on the moon were and are very good men who's whole lives have been Duty, Honor, and Country.
