    Maybe because actually trying to debate such a stupid concept might lend it some kind of credibility? :) Much like the wingnuts who deny that the Holocaust happened, the "moon hoax" morons crave attention, so why should Senators and NASA scientists waste their valuable time trying to reason with people who deny obvious scientific evidence in favor of easily debunked conspiracy theories?

    First of all, the "rocket" didn't "explode". There was a fire in the command module.

    And yes, 2 years later (36 years ago today, BTW), we landed on the moon. 2 years of backbreaking effort, reengineering of the command module (not the entire "rocket"), and 4 succesful manned test missions (Apollo 7, 8, 9, and 10).



    And exactly HOW would you have us PROVE a negative? It isn't scientifically POSSIBLE to do so.

    But what has been done is to explain EVERY "anomaly" claimed by the "moon hoax" crowd, using simple, clear, VERIFIABLE science and common sense. There are MANY sites that discuss this stuff in detail, such as:

    Sending astronauts into space is fairly straightforward. What is not so easy is keeping them alive ie adaquates levels of oxygen to breath, water, comfortable temperature - in other words many of the things we take for granted on planet Earth.

    Okay NASA Sentinels : How's this :



    [​IMG]



    This is an official NASA photograph of a moon rock. How exactly does the letter 'C' happen to be scribed on it????.

    I'll tell you how; because that studio prop was borrowed from: an episode of 'Star Trek' . That's how.

    .............or maybe a 'Moon- Man' wrote it ?.

    Debunked thoroughly at:

    Summarized nicely at:

    Thanks for the referals; - I read thoroughly the www.lunaranomalies.com link which goes to extrordinary lengths to suggest that the 'C' may have been a hairstrand that got caught on the negative when being reproduced.
    Or deliberate sabotage.
    I am currently perusing all my 1966-1968 'Star Trek' episodes to see if I can locate that fibre-glass studio-prop moon-rock in them.NASA should have made sure that these rocks were placed the right way up but maybe the glare of those powerful sun-lamps 'fooled' the technicians out there in the Nevada Desert.
    (Okay I'm jesting a bit now!:p ).

    ........I'll be back with some more hoax-evidence!!............

    I should explain, once a space vehicle is in space and out of the gravitational pull of the earth and is pushed off in a given direction it keeps going. It is phenomenon known as perpetual motion.In space there is no air resistance.It is only the manoeuvrings within space that require the rockets to be blasted or compressed air is sometimes used. In other words the once any of the space craft that were sent to the moon once sent off in the required direction, the space craft used zero energy for propulsion, the only energy used was for the ongoing computer operations and the life support systems to keep the astronauts alive , this being the real challange as I have already stated.

    i remember argueing with my brother about this twenty five years ago, and I'll say now what i said then, if they faked it they would get so busted because russia would love to disprove it and there are telescopes that can see the stuff they left behind

    undecided myself... isn't the number 13 very unlucky? why would a spaceship with an unlucky number be sent to space? Not like this is the reason for my skepticism, just a thought though.

    It was Apollo 11 mission that had Neil Armstrong stepping out on to the moon, not Apollo 13 where it was planned to step out on the moon and collect far more in the way of minerals but things went askew.

    you expect me to belief we went to the moon back when computers were as smart as a hand held calculator . what the hell flew and control the rocket all the way to the moon? some crude and dumb transistors from the 1960s? Theres is a lot of details of the moon landing that is not exactly very clear or detail.

    well theres no grav/air on the moon so wouldnt the vibrations from setting down the flag make it wave a while with really low friction?

    The flag is not waving, compare how it looks to how a flag waving on the Earth looks, there is a huge difference.
