To rank tinfoil hat conspiracy theories, the only one more wacko than not believing in the moon landings is to believe in a flat earth.

The six Lunar landings did happen, and have been independently verified by other nations with no reason to give the US credit for "faking them".

Every single "problem" that the conspiracy folks have identified can be so easily explained, if one has an open mind. The "evidence" is so easily debunked. Its hard to believe you people really exist.

Round can be flat, is this a trap question?

Most believe it's a sphere.

You know the answer.

The question is if you will admit it to yourself and this board.

Mythbusters busted this hoax myth already (along with numerous others... proving man did actually walk on the moon))

I am still amazed by this. If you ever get a chance check out “from the earth to the moon.” Excellent series on the Apollo program. Baws from Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana got us on the moon. (And Nazi baws)

Man, that is an awesome video! I saw this on TV, but was very young when it happened. Means a lot more to me now!

If that doesn't make you proud to be an American, I am not sure you belong here....

“I remember the exit from the Lunar Module was delayed a couple of hours. ”
—-I think what you mean is, the time between the landing and the first step was a couple of hours. That’s right.
