Has man really landed/walked on the moon?

[Endlessseason]

Once considered absurd, the radical speculation that the Apollo 11 moon landing mission in 1969 was an elaborately staged fabrication has gained new momentum in recent years.

From the time Kennedy announced the goal to land man on the moon [a place no one had ever been] to the time we saw walking images was less than ten years. Bush's announcement in 2001 to "resend" man to the moon by 2015 means that it will take 46 years to go back to a place we have supposedly already been.

Years ago, when I first saw the movie Capricorn One, I thought the premise was ridiculous. One day ColdSmoke and I got into a pretty good argument about it and I thought he'd gone off his rocker to even question the moon landing, even in a philisophical debate. I believed then, and still believe now, that NASA really pulled it off.

But, many years later, after having lived through the lies, complete denials, and eventual exposure of conspiracies such as Watergate, arms-for-hostages, Whitewater, Monicagate, WMD's, and possibly even Kennedy's assassination, they all can make one wonder if landing on the moon might not have been the most incredible political/military/technological manipulation in the history of the world.

Yes, they have. Think about the comparrisons - Watergate - a handful of people and they couldn't keep it quiet. Arms for hostages, same. Clinton's blow-job - hell only two people were involed with that, and they couldn't keep it secret.

The reason it will take so long is because of the fucktarded media.
It will have to be fool proof to the tenth power, if anyone would die during it the media would shit all over it and it could be the end of NASA. Also a new type of craft will have to be developed to do it. Takes a lot of engineering.

the russians would've never let it pass if they suspected the americans cheating...

Well, that and we've lost the people, processes, and budget gravitas that allowed us to do it the first time around. The people who did it the first time around are dead, retired, or about to retire. It's impossible to economically replicate many of the processes/materials used, and face it, nobody really cares.

Funny what people find hard to believe.

That's why it's good the voting is anonymous. Peeps can vote what they really think without repercussion. I've read that there is a pretty significant percentage of people who doubt that it actually happened.

well, i have personally held in my hand materials that could only gotten to earth in the condition they were in by being transported from the moon (and not falling as a meteorite). people involved? i dunno, but a vessle for sure went there and came back with alot of samples.

Mars, bitches.

[golden powder]

Gallup poll only said 6% thought it might be a hoax. After 59 votes, ~15% here believe it might be a hoax? No wonder people think liberals are stupid.

[Steven S. Dallas]

I heard Jamie Pierre landed on the moon, switch, and rode that shit into the Sea of Tranquility. Let's see Buzz fucking Aldrin do that.

[Lane Meyer]

The moon was clearly pwned by NASA decades ago, bitches.

To the people that voted no -you are seriously fucking stupid. I mean, do you still think the earth is flat and that all the other "planets" revolve around us? Give me a fucking BREAK.

[Steven S. Dallas]

Ahhh... new signature.

One of the earthrise photos. The Flat Earth Society claimed these photos as evidence of a faked landing, since they show a spherical earth.

Made me laugh........that is all.

[pechelman]

you've got to be a complete fuckin idiot to beleive it was a hoax

granted if you do, I could care less.
go watch your nascar and keep reading your national inquirer

ROFL!!

What are you fucking stupid?

[couloirman]

that 1969 appollo 11 stuff was definitly faked, but since then we have definitly been there. Or at least made some convincing photos as if we had...


www.infowars.com has all the conspiracy mumbo jumbo nonsense that i hope its not true but it might be facts youd ever wanna see

[Lone Star]

i'm gullible and don't know how to fact check with goodle

...........

[Max Gosey]

Didn't stella or some other british skit show do this? "Shhhh!!! It's dangerous out there!" while sitting and drinking beers?

Who'da thought NASA would copy off a british TV show?

[bklyn]

Do you believe man has landed and walked on the moon?

The real question is... did he take a shit up there?

[Samwich]

You can see the landing sight on the moon with a telescope. We left things there. You can actually see it with your own eyes.

The reason it is going to take so much longer to do it this time around has to do with funding. When it was a matter of national pride and security, we were willing to throw a shitload of money into beating the Russians to a goal that, ultimately, was pretty pointless. Cool, definitely, but pointless.
Now, we are fighting a war that has cost $325 BILLION US dollars to date. That's a lot of money, and it doesn't leave much room for a space budget.
