Has man really landed/walked on the moon?

**KANUTTEN** · 05-08-2006, 06:31 AM

I only accept as truths such phenomena that by accepting them makes a difference in my day to day living. Whether man has been to the moon is beyond my ability to verify, and has no impact on my life whatsoever. Hence, I consider the statement that man has walked the moon as untrue.

Did I miss Capricorn 1 this weekend?

A few years ago if you asked Americans if GWB would be a good president, around 50% would've answered yes. Both of these things prove the same fact: there are a whole lot of idiots out there, and they believe a lot of stupid shit.

i had a college professor float this hoax theory in class one day (makes you wonder about academic standards) and told my father about it, as i had never heard it before. my father, having worked for NASA for 30+ years, proceeded to laugh so hard he fell out of his chair. to this day, i have never seen him laugh like that.

You REALLY think NASA got there first?

No, of course not. He would have dropped the mother load in NASA HQ before hopping on the space ship. If he'd done one up there it would be the classic 'floater' and would be drifting about space right now.... and that's littering which is subject to heavy penalties in some parts.

Spacemen and spacewomen don't shit in space - fact.

Are you serious about this or is this a joke?

Seriously, is everyone that voted "no" in this poll actually joking? I cannot believe anyone could truly believe the moon landings were faked. Thousands of engineers and scientists worked millions of man hours to developed a vehicle that was capable of placing two men on the surface of the moon. We built these vehicles, so what purpose would we have for not using them for their intended purpose?

I'm not sure, but isn't the whole flat earth society thing kinda tounge in cheek? I was always under the impression that they don't really believe thier own bs.

The only thing fake about the moon landing was that the flag they took pictures of wouldn't have been blowing in the nonexistent wind, so they startched the shit out of it so it would stand out straight and you could see it. Yea run on sentence.

Oh, and Bush's little proclomation is absolutly retarded, but I guess going back to the moon would be an easier way to spend money than actualy solving anything.

Much better than the Russian approach:

**summit** · 05-08-2006, 10:36 AM

13% voting they don't believe.

I think its the same 13% who accidently voted for pat buchanan... the poll was too confusing for them.

Because the only other option is: not only are they complete morons, they are also too pussy to defend their crackpot views.

Man, you really have drunk the Kool-Aid.

Yeah, if people truly believe we haven't landed on the moon I'd like to hear exactly why they don't believe it.

Not starch - it has a bar across the top.

Yeah, but look how black the background is. Shouldn't there be stars visible out there?

And, heck, I can even see the cord they plugged the LM into. Obviously there's no electricty--and certainly no electrical outlets--on the moon, so it's obvioulsy faked.

**s.p.c** · 05-08-2006, 10:52 AM

I got into a crazy arguement with my mother in law about this one day. My wife was interpretting, and i was half drunk, she was trying to convince me that it was a hoax. i felt like she was slandering the good ol' U S of A. I felt guilty the next morning and wondered where my new found national pride had come from.

Tom Wolfe's- The Right Stuff is an awesome read about the fledgling US space program.

they were there.

**Steven S. Dallas** · 05-08-2006, 10:53 AM

that's not real. If you look very closely on the right-hand side, you'll notice something that couldn't naturally survive in the allegedly airless moon atmosphere.

That's right... It's a bighorn.

**Tippster** · 05-08-2006, 10:55 AM

usually found sodomized by whelks....

**dipstik** · 05-08-2006, 11:13 AM

What bugs me is the idea that anyone would want to fake going to the moon. The moon sucks, there is nothing there. So why would we want to fake going there?

It's like telling your friends you hooked up with a fattie. If you did, live up to it, but if you didn't, why would you fake that you did?

And also, aren't these people that say the moon landing was fake the same people that tell us the pyramids were put here by aliens, and that the Locness monster is real? Can't we start getting rid of some of these people?

Of course man hasn't walked on the moon..

Hey, have you seen that video that shows the Gov't really was behind 911?

**1080Rider** · 05-08-2006, 11:55 AM

Roo- I'm pretty sure its common knowledge that Leif Ericksson landed on the moon first. He headed up there after finding the states, this was a long time before those fellas went to the moon...

Um, not quite.

Even telescopes with a resolution comparable to that of the Hubble
Space Telescope can only resolve details about 100 meters across (the
size of a football or soccer field).
