Hey Rock! Shhhhhhhh… quiet. If we let them know what we know they’ll think we liberals are crazy!

(I’m entirely kidding by the way.)

I’ve looked at these conspiracy theories before and though they seem slightly convincing they solve no problems. The 9/11 conspiracy theories hold more validity though… but it still solves nothing because nobody will believe it. They are more entertaining that useful. I say we leave both of these theories to rest because they accomplish nothing constructive.

All I can tell you is that since these theories have been around for decades and have been challenged so often, I don't bother with such "proof" any more.
But to counter your argument, I offer the Top Ten Apollo Hoax Theories from Space.com.
One quote which struck me was the line regarding the lack of stars in the photos. "If I were trying to fake this, I would put stars in the image,".

And Space.com is a VERY credible source.

The same it is with Iuri Gagarin - they were at least five Russians who went round the Earth before him ...

Are we too take this as fact, when you haven't even SOURCED your comment. Or should we take the smiley face as proof of your claim.

And I hate to tell you, but You Tube isn't a credible source unless it is backed up by some other evidence. REAL evidence, BTW. In case you were planning to relink those bogus videos.

I don't believe the guy who ate Mentos and drank cola until his stomach exploded was real either.

But let me take this opportunity to ask my question once again. Out of the THOUSANDS of people involved in the space program, why is it none of THEM have backed up these claims? If ANYONE would know if the Moon landing was a fake it would be one of them.
I hardly think, out of ALL those people, not one has leaked the information. It's always some yo-yo out in the desert who has it ALL figured out.

Because it is imassible. It is unfeaseble!

Even up-to-date techniques can not deliver men from any planet or moon!
Delivering of litle stones from moon is possible, but not 60-90 kg man in spacecraft not less than several tons!

If we want safely deliver only one man from moon we must build facility as russians have in Baikonur (Kazakhstan) or US have in Florida.
Mass of the equipment of these facilities is more than thousand of tons!
Yes I know that the gravitation on the moon is six times less then on earth, but what the diference? The same we must transfer on moon thousands of tons of equipment!

So I can definitly say. United States was able to land the US-astronauts on moon but even now no one can't take them from moon/

When people will build Baikonur on moon only then people can fly on moon and back!

Ok, nothing ever really happened. I am God. And I just implanted you all with fake memories a few seconds ago and I don't remember including fake moon shots, just try and prove that didn't happen...also...in 20 seconds or so I'm gonna implant v1.2 of memories in your head and that'll be some really screwed up stuff if you keep posting crap like this Rocky...oh by the way, welcome to our site!

Scribbler1, my sources are Russian newspapers yet before Putin came to power, any Ilyushin ´s meeting with the American journalists as I have stated it ...

Okay, I'm not saying you are wrong, but if you expect people to believe something that goes against all recorded history and common knowledge, you must at least provide SOME kind of evidence.
You don't need to write a book. Just a link or two to credible sources will be fine.

I think you miss one vital element here. MOST of that massive weight is made up of the Saturn V and it's fuel. The first stage alone weighed about five Million pounds, fully fueled.
Where you make your mistake is that that rocket and all that fuel have one purpose, which is to get the Apollo spacecraft out of Earth's atmosphere and away from it's gravity. The booster stages were never meant to go to the Moon.
Most of the fuel is gone in a little over two minutes and the rocket just falls back to Earth. The spacecraft itself weighs a mere fraction of the total weight of the rocket and payload.
And the Lunar Lander (LM) made its OWN launchpad when it returned to the Command Module. The bottom part stayed behind, so it weighed even LESS than it did when it landed.

never lift

well if youre nit-picking the films saying thats evidence that they didnt go to the moon, then ive gotta say the videos are proof enough for me that we did go.
