"Moon Landing Hoax?"

On Channel 5 at 9pm tonight there is a program about whether the Apollo Moon landings were faked.

What do you think about this? I have seen some pretty convincing evidence to say that they WERE faked...but then convincing evidence that they actually happened.

Now I'm no conspiricy theorist...Kennedy WAS killed by a lone gunman...Elvis IS dead...AREA 51 is just a testing ground for top secret planes, but I lean more towards fake myself, although I'd be happy to be proved wrong.

Other way round.

Yeah. Dirty commies.

It makes you wonder, but it doesn't make me change my thoughts on the subject. These rumours may have been started by the Russians, actually- think about it, if they lost the 'Space Race', they may well have been jealous. It may make me sound like an propogandist, but think about it.

As I said before, I'm not bothered either way. If they managed to get to the moon, then well done, if they didn't, then it's a very good joke. Anyone know the date of the landing? Wasn't April first by any chance was it?

I don't care if there is a cover up...in fact I'd love to be proven wrong about the hoax theroy...but there is just so much inconsistancy in alot of photo's and footage that it does make you wonder.

ultimately we will never know for sure...only a death bed confession from Neil Armstrong himself would prove the rumours...or a future genuine mission not finding any of the crap we have left up there.

Probably because it was some distance away- Think about the perspective here. Otherwise, the mountains may have been formed in a very similar way- in the Himilayas, for example, in some areas there are around twenty mountains all of which are of a similar size and shape.

There are reasonable, rational explanations- you're just ignoring them because of the attraction to the fact that you think a massive coverup has been revealed.

I'm off to watch it anyway...by the way...Capricorn One is a good film based on this idea...worth picking up on DVD.

Well it wouldn't be for nothing, at least it would show that they can get to the Moon.

:)

It has to be a hoax. Just think about the way they were walking. The moon is smaller than earth, so the gravitational pull would have been stronger. It orbits us.

Oh certainly...no denying that...even if they were genuine it would have just become too expensive to keep going back...especially as there is nothing really worth going for...if they are fake, why keep faking it and risking exposure.
