we bounce lasers off of equipment we left there every day.

if we got pictures from hubble, the theorist would only claim that THOSE pictures where faked too.
thats why they don't believe..... because they don't want to.
EVERYTHING is debatable to them,
nerd alert..... but he's got some great! points

Because Hubble doesn't have nearly that much resolution . We'd need a satellite in orbit of the Moon to get those pictures. And we don't have one.
But it doesn't matter - they'd just claim those were faked too. And Hubble time is far to precious to waste on conspiracy theorists who will never be satisfied with any amount of evidence. We know that because we already have irrefutable evidence of the Moon landing - like Moon rocks and the mirror we left behind.

1: Hubble cannot resolve objects that size at that distance. In fact, even most orbiting probes can only see the lander as a small blob casting a shadow, as opposed to being able to take a clear picture of what is obviously a lunar lander.
2: The people who think we didn't go already discount thousands of pictures and hours and hours of TV and film, as well as the evidence of the lunar samples, the personal testimonies of the people involved, and vast amounts of other evidence. They're really not going to be swayed by some new digital images.

BOY------ this has been answered a MILLION times already------
very simply-------- no telescope in use today can RESOLVE such a small object as the lunar lander on the surface of the moon------ even the Hubble's maximum resolution is about the size of a football field.

There are basically two types of people who say we didn’t go to the moon. First came those who knew that if they published or televised some really whacky pseudo science that attempted to show the moon landings were a hoax, they would make a heap of money out of the second group of people: the masses of the population who have not got the knowledge or the intelligence to see through it.
At least the first group are getting rich. You and your kind are just getting duped and made to look stupid.

Hubble can't resolve down to the degree we'd need to see the equipment. I think at best it's resolution at 240,000 miles is about 1/2 to a 1/4 square miles, which isn't good enough to see the lower stage of the LM (about 24 feet from foot pad to foot pad).
Besides - honestly - would **YOU** trust fuzzy, grainy pictures taken by the same agency that sent the astronauts in the first place?

Well,,,,,lets see. We landed in the Mare Tranquillium right? ("sea of tranquility") and the Hubbles mirror is 96" wide, and we're trying to see a metal box thats roughly 30 feet high, 15 feet or so across, from 250,000 miles away?
Probably not gonna happen- the backgrounds too bright to see the spacecraft.

hubble can not zoom in that close to the moon to be able to focus on that small of an area, It can resolve approx. 100 yards but not much smaller,
there are the lunatics who are still in denial but the fact is the US went to the moon many times

To answer the actual question, Hubble lacks the resolution to see anything as tiny as the stuff that was left there.

Why bother, if they don't believe NASA in the first place why would they believe the space telescope. Better things to research I think and forget these idiots
