Did we Land On The Moon ? 8pm channel 5

[Frutos]

If the moon landings were faked, how did the man made objects which are there get there?

 

[Trufflehound]

ELVIS is still alive ...

Of course he is. I saw him live back in June.

Although to be fair he was better with The Attractions.

They then went on to fake another five manned missions, entirely pointlessly, making exactly the same mistakes every single time.

I don't understand human nature sometimes. It feels like every time there's some huge, world-grabbing event, some people fall over each other trying to convince everybody it never happened. When we eventually walk on Mars, no doubt there will be the same shit.

The first landing was a fake the others were real

 

[Trufflehound]

The moon landings were real. President Nixon was faked.

 

[Herne Hill Seagull]

The first landing was a fake the others were real

Oh I see. So, lacking the technology to achieve it in July '69, they busily faked it. Then, just four months later, and having 'won' the race by faking it, they found they did have the technology and sent more people up there. Just in case, like. That'll show those pesky Commies...

Oh and now, decades later, and with the Iron Curtain fallen, they continue to fake evidence with photos of the kit left behind on all six missions, just to keep up with the whole charade.

We're find out soon when the Indians or Chinese have a go at a moon trip

 

[Jim D]

I think more eggs should be put in the Mars basket, that's where we're more likely to make some discoveries.

Do you mean like how to make a Mars omelette? It'd be a lot healthier than those deepfried ones and would probably save lives. Good thinking - well done.

 

[GreersElbow]

We did land on the moon.

The question is: Why have we not gone back? The moon would be a good place to have a base to operate further into our solar system.

Also, why are all impact craters on the moon the same depth?

 

[Trufflehound]

We did land on the moon.

The question is: Why have we not gone back?

Because it costs hundreds of billions of dollars...?

Why would anyone spend that amount of money just to repeat something we've already done?

Photoshop is very advanced these days , the 2nd landing could of been a fake as well I suppose but I have not seen a documentary about if it was or wasn't so can't really argue For or against

And the third? Just another three months later? What about people observing the kit on the surface through telescopes? How is Photoshop sorting that out? Nasa sneaking into every observatory on the planet with a sufficiently powerful telescope and painting the images on the lenses? All six landing sites are on the Earth-facing side of the moon, and all six can be observed by anybody with a good enough telescope. Not common-or-garden telescopes admittedly, but there are plenty in the world which can see them. Alternatively anybody with the right equipment can bounce a laser beam off the reflector arrays they left up there. How's that being faked?

Because the moon still isn't fully understood, and it is also a good location to use as a base to further our exploration into space.

1) When a satellite crashed into the moon, it was reported to have rung for hours and hours, like a bell. How? In theory it shouldn't have, as the theory of the creation of the moon is the first Theia impact, so it's just a lump of rock?

2) The moon in comparison to other planetary satellites is too big and too far away from Earth. Something that big surely should not be captured by Earth's gravitational pull. So what else is the moon made out of? Because it may have metals on it, and we can use that to advance our study of our own Earth.

The reason that the Apollo 13 mission didn't land on the moon was that it wasn't carrying a lunar lander. The space in the rocket was taken up by a film crew and special effects team simulating the emergency. Fact. (Well that's what I've just made up anyway).

Yer but ..... They put ......before that ..... No but ........ Yes but ...... Answer Me that smart arse

 

[chucky1973]

why have we never been back? Technology has moved on massive amounts so there maybe something up there which could be of use to us back here, so with that in mind I think its a load of bollox and was staged. WE have never been to the moon.

Good. Damn good. Blast your eyes, man.

 

[dingodan]

We were warned off the moon. The place was crawling with Aliens, especially on the "dark side".

That must be the truth then !!

So how do you account for the fact that there are man-made objects on the moon?

 

[Nibble]

One reason these nutobs give for faking the landings was to beat the Ruskies, Surely a bit risky? If the Ruskies then went there they could easily prove the U.S never made it. People need to grow up.
