Was the Moon landing a hoax?

[William33 110]

As the proud son of a leading NASA Aeronautical Engineer during that era, it happened!

I am pleased to hear that it will happen again!!!

39% on VJ believe it was a hoax, or at least claim to believe that People who really believe it was a conspiracy scare me...

People love to think everything is a hoax. That's a pretty elaborate and flawless hoax. The only things people say to "prove" it hasn't happened are completely out of their #### things and not facts.

And just because you don't understand how to get to the moon doesn't make it impossible.

Anyone watch that one episode of Myth Busters?

Look up Myth Busters moon landing.

[Aubrey 10]

History catches liars, don't you know (Nixon, Clinton, must I really go on)? This was definitely no hoax!

Look, even the MythBusters agree!

This poll shows that 37% of VJers are retarded.

That's offensive and totally uncalled for. Reported.

[Kathryn41 3,205]

Agreed - no need for name calling and personal insults. It would be a dull world in deed if we all thought exactly the same all of the time.

i know for sure if it was a hoax

A poll conducted this year suggests that one in four Americans believe the US government faked the moon landing in its effort to win the Cold War.

What do you think?

Well, I was always of the opinion that if Neal had popped his helmet off and waved, that would have solved the whole issue.

Maybe the "COLD WAR" was faked to start the race to the moon............................ :whistle:

Ben's first VJ post??

Well of course it's a hoax.

It is simply foolish to believe facts.

Further it's very in vogue to believe in scandalous thoughts.

No Jews died.

Columbus discovered nothing.

I also believe that:

The vast majority of the VJ membership is simply false computer IDs. Maybe there are two or three 'real' people like me.

All text here is preprogrammed by the moderators to drum up click volume and etc for computers, kinda like Tron.

Definitely all the nitwits here are for my entertainment. Which is a cool thing, I like computer chess.

There is no thought here in these posts beyond the computers program.

I write this drivel so the computer knows it's not fooling me.

In general, unless I observe an event firsthand, most news is pure lie to propagate someone’s sick twisted money grubbing personal agenda.

A human landed on the moon?

Gimme a break, what??? is FOOL on my forehead???

and in any event....Lance Armstrong finally admits he did not land there...

[Jasman0717 9]

Wow, 22 people believe it was a hoax

[justashooter 430]

well.

to me with all i have seen on the conspiracies its seems it was a hoax.

and it is evidant from the history that human beings could only fly after a lot experimenting and trials and lsot lives too not to mention the money.

and they were going outside the world for the first time with no experience of how the outside of the world would like be.so to me its impossbile to conquest moon in very first attempt.

still who knows the truth except for the spacemen and others involved.

i have read somewhere to cover up they got many of them who were connected to event killed.

you need to read chuck yeager's biography. i met the guy many years ago and talked with him about his regret that he was unsuitable for participation in the program due to his age. he was the first man to leave the atmosphere and data his plane recorded was the basis for an empirical understanding of the engineering difficulties the space program would face. the entire program took 20 years to create, and was based in theoretical adn empirical science that is irrefutable.

on a related note, a few years ago china wanted to send a message to the world that they were not to be messed with. they wanted to show us that they could destroy surveilance and communications satelites with land based missiles. they fired 4 imssiles at a failed communications satelite the size of a schoolbus before hitting it. the next month an American submarine in the north pacific launched one missile at the energy cell of a much smaller satelite. their target was the size of a washing machine, and was hit on the first shot. if we can hit a washing machine with a missle, we can damned sure hit the moon.

So many conspiracies exist but isn't it easier to actually land on the Moon than to orchestrate such a massive conspiracy to fake such a landing? If not, I'll be surprised that the many, many people involved before in the moon landing project (scientists, astronauts, engineers, technicians, skilled laborers, govt.) were able to keep the secret a secret.

So yeah, not sure what to think.

This has always been my response to people who think it is a hoax. No question it would be easier to land on the moon than pull off such a hoax.

No offense, but are you saying Yuri Gregarin never made it into space? If the reason it seems it was a hoax is because we didn't have the the flight capabilities and this was the first attempt, then the Russians must have been pulling off a hoax as well. All our pre and post moon landing missions must have been hoaxes as well. How, then did we develop the technology to put a space station out there and to fly numerous shuttle missions? Or are those just a hoax as well?
