Stick it where the sun doesn't shine, ignoramus.

I was in engineering school with a group of electrical engrg buds. We built a receiver and a very directional antenna and listened to the astronauts. When we pointed the antenna anywhere away from the Moon, the signal dropped out. We listened to all six Moon landings. We even picked up Apollo 13.

You're a pathetic cynic, a sorry doubter, who has to experience something first hand to learn. Play in traffic for yourself and see if doing so could get you hurt.

Go back to "YouTube" and entertain yourself with the other "conspiracy theory" buttheads.

I believe we did ... but there is evidence against it...

Several motives have been suggested for the U.S. government to fake the moon landings - some of the recurrent elements are:
Distraction - The U.S. government benefited from a popular distraction to take attention away from the Vietnam war. Lunar activities did abruptly stop, with planned missions cancelled, around the same time that the US ceased its involvement in the Vietnam War.
Cold War Prestige - The U.S. government considered it vital that the U.S. win the space race with the USSR. Going to the Moon, if it was possible, would have been risky and expensive. It would have been much easier to fake the landing, thereby ensuring success.
Money - NASA raised approximately 30 billion dollars pretending to go to the moon. This could have been used to pay off a large number of people, providing significant motivation for complicity. In variations of this theory, the space industry is characterized as a political economy, much like the military industrial complex, creating fertile ground for its own survival.
Risk - The available technology at the time was such that there was a good chance that the landing might fail if genuinely attempted.
The Soviets, with their own competing moon program and an intense economic and political and military rivalry with the USA, could be expected to have cried foul if the USA tried to fake a Moon landing. Theorist Ralph Rene responds that shortly after the alleged Moon landings, the USA silently started shipping hundreds of thousands of tons of grain as humanitarian aid to the allegedly starving USSR. He views this as evidence of a cover-up, the grain being the price of silence. (The Soviet Union in fact had its own Moon program).

Proponents of the Apollo hoax suggest that the Soviet Union, and latterly Russia, and the United States were allied in the exploration of space, during the Cold war and after. The United States and the former Soviet Union today routinely engage in cooperative space ventures, as do many other nations that are popularly believed to be enemies. However, this suggestion is challenged by the impression of intense international competition that was under way during the Cold War and is not supported by the accounts of participants on either side of the Iron Curtain. Many argue that the fact that the Soviet Union and other Communist bloc countries, eager to discredit the United States, have not produced any contrary evidence to be the single most significant argument against such a hoax. Soviet involvement might also implausibly multiply the scale of the conspiracy, to include hundreds of thousands of conspirators of uncertain loyalty.

who knows ... but i would say it did inspire the present generation to ... go where no man has gone before...
we will be there if werent there in 1969.

Yes.
I saw it, millions of others saw it, thousands of technicians and scientists were involved in the space program for years before the first landing in 1969 (and I have the newspaper clippings and Time magazine from that milestone event).

Opinion is irrelevant. Humans walked on the moon. You'd have to ignore a giant mountain of physical evidence to believe otherwise.

YES I do. The proof is in the Smithsonian Space and Science Museum in Washington, DC, USA.

I know they did. My brother was in the moon program.

If you have the time, study the links given above. Then study these:

Then see if you think there is any doubt. See if the "evidence" against Apollo stands up under scrutiny.
