Do any of you actually believe we didn't land on the moon?
 

I guess I expected people with little or no education to believe this but I just spent a day in Cambridge with three of the most intellegent people I know and somehow in conversation the moonlanding came up and all three of them said they had doubts.

Now, I realise that as the daughter of a space science teacher I might be a bit biased here but seriously how many of you actually think we were never there?

I don't believe there's a moon.

zoom in all the way

if google says it, it must be true

Who said Southern schools weren't the best in the country ;)

Im not sure if I believe that we werent there, but I have some very intelligent relatives that have the same theory. And they will be happy to argue it with anyone at reunions...I just stay out of it.

I don't believe we have ever landed on the moon. Intelligence really has nothing to do with it, its a matter of physics and conspiracy and the things that were happening in the world the time that it happened. I made a thread about this a year or so ago, I'll dig it up if I get bored later.

What exactly do your intelligent friends base their doubts on? I've heard several people say it was a Hollywood production, but nothing more than that.

People believe what they want to believe.

And I went to one of them hoity toity private schools too! :)

lol..I just zoomed in all the way

Hey you! Was thinking about you today.

there was a documentary on here a couple of years back documenting about it being fake.


I have doubts about the first time, maybe it was faked to beat the russians or whatever, but I don't care enough to think about it much.

WE didn't land on the moon. THEY did. Find out who THEY are.

not enough cainings

The usual wind blowing theories, etc.

yeah they did..

Neil Armstrong for starters

We learned well enough to know to spell it canings. (we need a "neener, neener, neener" smiley :winkwink: )

And yes, I really do believe we landed on the moon. I also believe we landed rovers on mars. I'm just a nutcase :)

My favorite conspiracy theory revolves around the shooting of JFK. He never died. He lived for years, albeit as a vegetable, on a private island owned by Aristotle Onassis.

I believe that. Elvis is with him.

LOL

Google always has a sense of humor.

So, you have seen Bubba Hotep too? Don't forget that JFK is black now.

I thought they dyed his skin black and stuffed him in a retirement home? :1orglaugh

"I'm thinking with sand here man!"

Doh! Did I mention Cambridge has some rather nice pubs? Not that actually had anything alcoholic but that is besides the point.

lol..if you have played the DVD commentary do it. It is worth it to hear Campbell watch it for the first time as Elvis.

Awesome!! :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

its just odd we haven't been back in what... over 30 years?

Nothing there we need to pillage. If there was something of value, we'd have already developed it :)

Yes, that's what they say.

the people who don't believe we landed on the moon offer arguments based on physics that include an atmosphere (physics in a vacuum actually apply), it's just the undereducated attempting to explain a concept that they cant grasp by using their lack of scientific knowledge to claim it didnt happen...not unlike religion works.

I spent a year at Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville and 4 and a half years at Kennedy Space Center, I assure you...we went...and as much as I don't much like Hollywood in General "Apollo 13" was incredibly accurate in general terms

moon rocks sell on ebay! :winkwink:

I do believe that we landed rovers on mars, but I do not think that we have been to the moon. If we had, why not put the space station on the Moon, rather than risk it floating in space??

And there are way to many things point to the facts that we have never been there.

Hi Mike! :)

Here is the final proof that they did NOT land on the moon:

LOL.. we have all been hoaxed. :( :1orglaugh

I think the moon landings were real. But how come nobodys been back there since the 1970s?

Hahaha... Good link :1orglaugh

Its a great way to waste billions of dollars. The whole race to the moon thing was just part of the cold war with the Soviets, a big dick measuring contest if you will.

I think the Japanese are planning on going to the moon again in the next 10 years or something though.

First off, the space station isn't any more "floating in space" than a satellite or the moon. It has its orbit due to the Earth's gravity.

Second, the moon is a lot further away than the space station. It would defeat its purpose.

We landed on the moon? By we you mean GFY? You went to the moon? Interesting.

Something is wrong, I could have sworn that as a child we were told it was made of green cheese.

I won't believe it until I see pics on FUBAR. :upsidedow

BINGO

and yes it was a lot of money but by the same token it pushed technology way ahead, which in the long run has been great for the economy so call it a wash

you owe much of what you use in everyday life to the Apollo Program....yep even computers...Not that it wouldn't have eventually happened, it just wouldn't have happened as fast. The Apollo program revolutionized everything from light weight ultrastrong materials (not to mention heat resistant) to fuel efficiency to computer technology

It is all true! go and check out ABOVE TOP SECRET . COM it will explain everything!

:1orglaugh hehehehehehe! you crazy, peaches! *muah*

PROOF!

God, can you only imagine? MoonMammas.com taken yet?

Nasa spent a shitload of money to develop a pen that will work in space under no gravity conditions in order the astronauts to be able keep notes. Russians instead used a pencil.

I always believed we did until I started having some doubts a year or 2 ago. Probably internet propaganda that planted the seeds of doubt... the only thing that boggles my mind is, how did "we" (Americans, Russians whoever) do that successfully over 30 years ago when we have so much difficulty launching and landing shuttles in this day in age, after all the advanced knowledge we have?

we have no need to go back to the moon, we went, nothing was there that was worth a damn, alot of testing probes still on the surface of the moon, there is a place in nevada or some where that launches a laser at the moon almost every day and this probe on the moon will bounce back the laser..

It was one of the experiments we took up there, there is alot of stuff still up there that we communicate with in means of lasers and other shit to get what we need.. soon as we make it to mars and find out its just as useless as the moon we will not go back..
