I'm pretty sure the republicans are behind all of it.

I was equally sure the democrats were to blame.

If I can't flame anyone who thinks the moon landing was a hoax, I'm out.

But is anyone brings any 9/11 conspriacy bullsh#t to this board, they are gonna get more than they bargained for.....seriously.

Nasa just recently released HD photos taken by a new Moon orbitor that shows the landing sites. There's something there.

I do not believe it was a hoax.

You youngin's who weren't alive then seem to forget that the country was mired in Vietnam, we were in the middle of the Cold War with Russia and the economy was not solid.

NASA had a certain number of rockets to use. Nixon cut funding so the last of the rockets were used for Skylab and the Apollo/Soyuz mission.

I can appreciate the thinking that it was a hoax, but even as evil as our government can be, I doubt this could be kept a secret.

As for 9/11, it was the Garden Gnomes...they are out to get us.

FIRE DOESN'T MELT STEEL! < /Rosie O'Donnell >

(Never mind that fire doesn't have to melt steel for a structure to fail...it just has to get it to the plastic state, which is only about 900 degrees F!)

Too bad they just didn't hijack Rosie instead.

They couldn't find a big enough plane.

I just read in Scientific American yesterday that it costs $10,000 per pound to send stuff into space. So let's see....300 (I'm being generous) x 10,000...carry the three....round to the significant figures.....

$3,000,000

We can take donations and we could pry do this.

There is a dark side of the moon. I listened to it.

And as happens frequently, I agree with Tom.

My favorite conspiracy is the Denver Airport. As for the moon I have no reason to doubt we went there; I do find it interesting how often anomalies show up in NASA footage.

There's a link somewhere of (I think) Neil Armstrong socking a guy in the mouth for implying that he's a liar. Pretty funny.

Edit: It was Buzz Aldrin.

With today's technology you would think someone could take a picture of the exact spot that they landed and planted the flag. Wouldn't that still be there???

It was blown over when the Lunar Module lifted off to return to Earth. As I recall you can see it being blown over in the video footage, and I've read that subsequent moon missions implanted the flag farther from the landing site so it wouldn't be blown over.

Oh, they're there. I've seen them through my backyard telescope.

Does anyone else think it was a hoax?

I am not even a conspiracy theorist or anything of the sort, but something has always sat wrong with me and the lunar landing.

I have wondered why only 6 missions have went to the Moon and why we have not went since the early 70's. Individuals have said that it's because NASA is broke and they are planning to cancel the program. I think that is B.S. -- NASA if in financial trouble, has not always been in trouble.

I also feel that all research that can be done from Earth is great, but Scientists naturally want to get more hands on, especially via the Moon's surface. I'm sorry to rant, but I got to thinking about it and I think it's just another B.S. story by the Government and it's too late for them to admit it, otherwise they would lose credibility.

Discuss?

P.S. If you plan to participate, please don't flame anyone. It's just a discussion, nothing to get mad about.

I watched it on TV; therefore it must be true
