We did. If we hadn't, Obama would've told the world by now and apologized for lying.

nope, and the USSR knew but didn't say anything because they were actually capitalist.

I am on the undecided. Man has not gone beyond the moon since. I find that very odd that we havent even attempted another moon landing or even a man on Mars. Our technology is infinitely better than in 1969. It wouldnt surprise if the whole thing was BS.

This is how I felt until 44 mins ago.

Now I am on the conspiracy side of things.

Watch the video.

You will be enlightened.

There is no wind on the Moon. The flag is held up by a horizontal bar and simply moves when it is unfurled and as the pole is being fixed into position by the astronauts. The flagpole is light, flexible aluminium and continues to vibrate after the astronauts let go, giving the impression of blowing in the wind.

Oh wow. Look at that.

I find it awfully suspicious that there was never any talk of the moon prior to the Kennedy regime. Then all of a sudden, everyone wanted to go there? Seems fishy that it just popped up one day.

I have been told by someone who is a filmmaker type that the video/effects technology that would have been needed to fake the landing did not exist at the time. Granted, this was a person that worked at NASA that told me such, but he was a young guy fresh out of college.

So take that for what it's worth. Maybe some of the film buffs here with a knowledge of history of effects could weigh in with their opinions about that angle.

Been there, done that.

You're looking at 2.5-3 years MINIMUM and estimated costs are $500 billion +

Not to mention the high levels of ionizing radiation the astronauts would be exposed to

Neil Armstrong was going to tell the truth but was assassinated beforehand. We absolutely did not land on any moon.

And to think some of the people in this thread are able to vote.

I fear for the future of mankind.

It is incredibly expensive to send manned missions, and we no longer have any motivation besides scientific curiosity. Back then we were motivated as a nation by political reasons. It is cheaper and safer to send unmanned missions, of which we have sent many out into the solar system.

You can reach rational simple explanations without trying to impose fantastic explanations that rely on imposing an incredibly unrealistic amount of order unto or little chaotic world.

1. moon dust is almost as reflective as a mirror (as it is very fine and light colored dust), and there is no atmosphere to absorb sunlight.

2. flag waved because of the movement of putting it into the ground, with nothing but gravity and stiffness of flag material to resist the movement, it undulates. In fact if you watch the video you'll see the flag "flap" upwards while he's carrying it, impossible without very low gravity (and low gravity is impossible without being on the MOON).

3. crazy
4. crazy

WTF is wrong with you people? Seriously. If aliens come to our planet looking for intelligent life, they are in for a laugh. You people are stupid....like flat-out f*cking dumb. Just lock the doors, put on your tin foil hat, listen to reruns of coast to coast AM, and just stay the frick out of society. My God you're dumb.

We did, but I very recently learned that we encountered aliens on the moon that made it abundantly clear that we are to never go there again.

So we had the technology to actually land on the moon but not fake it.

Think that over for awhile.

Sidenote, when this dumb thread pops up every now and then, does anyone else like to picture Buzz Aldrin reading it somewhere and just beating the shite out of his computer?
