Apollo 11 fake or real?

[oureptsC]

So I just recently thought about the Apollo 11. It Is such a big event in all history and we all meant to believe that It Is true and during Apollo 11 mission 2 man really stepped on the Moons surface. A lot of people say that It Is fake and Armstrong and Buzz actually never landed on the Moon Surface?

Read here on wiki for more information : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_landing_conspiracy_theories

What do you think?

[bluefirecorp]

It happened.

I'd like you tell Buzz it didn't happen and see what happens. 

[oureptsC]

It happened.

I'd like you tell Buzz it didn't happen and see what happens.  

Myself I'm on 50/50 , I just can't State that It happened because what do we really know Is only statement that It happened from Media. But curiosity really landed on Mars I guess so I'm more realistic about It.

I wouldn't be massively surprised if it did come out as fake, but assuming that it is true then what an achievement it was - though the cost was absolutely colossal!

[bitgeek]

I'd say they did launch and land but they migt've not walked on the moon. The photos look a bit fake.

[hilariousandco]

No, it wasn't faked.

It happened.

I'd like you tell Buzz it didn't happen and see what happens. 

[bluefirecorp]

No, it wasn't faked.

It happened.

To be fair, that guy: " In it, Sibrel stated, "I'd bet my life on it that we didn't go to the Moon."

So, technically, Buzz knows that he lost his bet, he had every right to punch him in the face as he forfeited his life.

They did launch but are you sure they landed? Is there any proof that they landed?

I can't find a good rebuttal to why we have never gone back and now in 2014 China had great difficulty landing on the moon do I really think it went down back then.  Everyone from that time believes it happened so it did.. right :S..  I dunno I find it hard to believe we didn't but most peoples proof is "I saw it" and well... if that's your proof I could make you believe I am a god if you watch this video.

Because there's nothing of value on the moon, now if it had rare resources that'd be worth quite a bit in bulk, then we'd be up there drilling 24/7.

Take a look at a private corporation like SpaceX. I think, if a private corporation can get into the space game now-a-days, the government was able to do it decades ago with a much larger budget.

Ok maybe there  is nothing valuable there but why 1 or 2 times was not enough to fly there? According to wikipedia after Apollo 11 there was 5 more successful manned flights to the Moon and from 1972 no one was flying there anyone.

Here are some pictures of the last flight to the Moon Apollo 17.







I wonder why there are no stars in the sky?

Ok that explains It and Is It the same thing with the earth as there is no earth also?

Is only statement that It happened from Media.

There's also the equipment they left behind on the moon, such as the Lunar Ranging Retroreflectors. Anyone with a powerful laser can zap it at the landing site and verify the presence of these devices.

And the moon rocks they brought back, which have been analysed by many independent geologists around the world and found to be not Earth rocks.

And the fact that the moon landings were conducted in the middle of the Space Race, with the Russians watching America's every move. The Russians were tracking American space launches on radar, and they'd be the first to call bullshit if they never happened.

Ok that explains It and Is It the same thing with the earth as there is no earth also?

No, you can see the Earth from the Moon just fine during the day (and vice versa), as long as you're on the side of the Moon facing the Earth, obviously. The Earth isn't visible in those photos for the simple reason that the camera wasn't pointed in Earth's direction.

What a wonderful view of earth.. I`d just be paranoid all the time thinking the gravity is too weak so I`d fall off the moon.

So its real assuming which lead to the space program to launch all the way to apollo 18.

Thanks for the response about  Lunar Ranging Retroreflectors. Everything you said makes sense and what a photographer that didn't take a pictures with seeing earth from the Moon that looks like an abvious thing to do but he didn't do It...

And Is this picture real , Earth with Moon that you posted or It's  just made with a computer program?

[PizzaTraveler]

Russians said that they in 2020 will land on the moon... so it doesn't matter was Apollo story real or fake!

[aboo]

Haha, I totally thought it was fake lol.

I guess wikipedia wins.
