If you believe Apollo 11 was a hoax, and we never went to the moon, do you think Apollo 13 was a hoax?
NASA was losing public interest, people thinking it was wasting money on useless missions.
Could they have faked the Apollo 13 accident inorder restore the public's interest in NASA, getting more funding?

No I'm pretty sure it happened...

I saw Tom Hanks and Kevin Bacon come back to earth safely with help from Gary Sinese..

I dont believe in conspiracy theories. However, the best ones I have heard regarding Apollo is we had teams up there running all of the missions behind scenes, and then send the Apollo missions for publicity. Alex Jones I believe said this.

I've never read up on the hoax theories, but how are the following events explained:

1) Launch - do people think that we went through the trouble of launching rockets with no payload/passengers?

2) Landing - were the landings done in studio as well? Did they use the big water tank that Cameron used for the Titanic? If the landing wasn't faked, did they launch the crew into the sky specifically for the landing?

Show me where in my OP, I say these things were hoaxes or where I say I think these were hoaxes.

I did not once say how I feel about either subject.

I didn't say this. I asked could the accident be a hoax?

I think the "hoax" people believe is that we landed on the moon..Not that a rocket went up and came down...

Some of you people replying to my topic are too stupid to recognize that I am trolling Tinfoil Hat Wearers, not doubting that we went to the moon.
