The Apollo Moon Missions Were Faked in a Studio

You had me until the last part. Long live Billy Shears!

Yeah… I can’t believe Liberace was gay. I mean, women loved him! I didn’t see that one coming.

{snip} Let’s hear everybody’s view on the Chinese spacewalk? Do you say it was real, or faked?
[/QUOTE]

Fake. Gotta be. Had it been real, they would have done it all over again an hour later.

Chinese spacewalk?

Is that anything like Michael Jackson’s Moonwalk? I know that was fake. Ain’t no way a real person could do that, much less the alien sleeper agent that was Michael Jackson.

I’m sorry all but I can no longer live this lie. They’re on to us! We may as well admit everything.

Yes, it’s all fake. The moon landings, the space station, all of it.

Hell, we’ve never even mastered flight. A plane hasn’t been made that’s left the ground yet.

All those who’ve been payed off for pretending like you atually boarded a plane that flew somewhere, please raise your hands. Come on now… not one of you has ever taken a flight anywhere. Admit it. We get on, we are shown a video of where we’re pretending to go and after the briefing we get money to keep our lying mouths shut.

Well no more! It ends now.

The truth is out.

I feel so much better now. Like a great weight lifted… Wait… someone’s at the door… brb…

Aww man, I missed a nutball.

I always love it when someone says that watching a few youtube videos makes them smarter than all the astronomers, engineers, mechanics, and other experts who actually worked on it. Really does something to their credibility.

I’ll bite.

The moon landing is real. Flags can still move in a vacuum- not due to a breeze, but due to gravity, or getting bumped into, or other mundane forces.

It’s much, much easier to actually get to the moon than it is to maintain such a conspiracy, which would require the silence of thousands of people. Getting to the moon is a tough task, but we did it six times.

Every piece of supposed evidence of a hoax has been refuted. Flags can move, stars don’t always show in photographs up depending on light conditions, shadows look weird in rough terrain, etc. You have failed.

He’s actually not a one-and-done. He’s responded in this thread.

Yes, I’m assuming it’s a male. I think it reflects well on my opinion of females that I just can’t picture a woman being this invested in a moon hoax conspiracy.

Paging Kozmik…Kozmik to Aisle 7, please.

Cosmored, meet Kozmik. Kozmik, meet Cosmored. I think you two have a lot to discuss. We’ll just all quietly let ourselves out. Don’t mind us.

C’mon, everyone, let’s go. Last one out lock the door.

I responded to this in post #138.

You ignored post #94.

Tell us exactly what you think made the flag move.

Seriously, you’re trying to use a guy that only uses HALF of the science required only to bolster your position? You also know what an atmosphere (on Earth) does that doesn’t happen on the Moon which explains a lack of detail AND reflective light artifacts from overexposure of the top of the equipment in order to get the darker regolith?

A: Diffuse sky radiation.

The scattered light evens out the lighting on the landscape on Earth, which smooths out the contrast of brightness that otherwise is not observable on the Moon.

As for the vehicle tracks, you got nothing there either. There are many different types of surfaces on the Moon and like Earth, vehicle tracks may be very pronounced (in sand, silt, dust, etc.) or nearly undetectable (hard surfaces, packed gravel, rocky layers, same reflective properties, etc.). Just to pull a page out of your playbook, missing tracks are for you to prove that the soil there is the former and not the later. Why don’t you go there and let us know what you find?:rolleyes:

Could care less about the Chinese spacewalk, it has nothing to do with your topic…your thread is specifically titled “The Apollo Moon Missions Were Faked in a Studio”. Stick to the topic, since this is your Pandora’s Box that you opened. You guys tend to be slippery eels when it comes to this nuttery.

Very silly explanations.

Seriously, this is 6th grade science that you are ignoring here. The flag is acting very similar to pendulum in a vacuum.

And so the fucking flag moved? Did you guys ever thought of the energy from the footsteps by the flag transferred to the base of the flag to shake it slightly from the ground? If the regolith there is soft, it would be easy to jump on by and compact the soil under the foot to push it towards the flag pole.

Stop sucking conspiracy dick already.:o

Angels.

You’re in the Pit, Cosmo. We’re not required to treat either you or your wacky ideas with even a modicum of respect.

Know what makes my flag move?

My God, it’s full of stupid. . .

Patriotism?

fake and gay

I know for a fact that it wasn’t a flag at all. It was Obama’s birth certificate.

I know who they picked for this moon hoax theory!:smiley:
