Following on from this being raised on another thread, what's your view on the Moon Landings? Were they staged? Or did man really go to the Moon and back?

And why hasn't man been back since?

Honestly I think man has been to the moon. I get the feeling tho that some of the pics,especially the hi res colour ones weren't taken on the moon but on a set,either before or after the missions. some of em seem to good to be true

i think they probs went to the moon, but faked the footage for extra publicity, as it being "live" was obviousily a big draw and they wanted to show off accross the world

"

Humans have been on the moon after 1969. There were six NASA landings in total. Every single time would have had to have been faked perfectly, presumably, with absolutely no one involved ever slipping up or blowing the whistle.

Conspiracy theories are usually daft but the moon landings one is particularly silly.

we haven't been back because there's nothing of worth to pillage there. Had there been anything we could have exploited we would have set up a station up there and stripped it of all we could!

The only country with the resources and money to go back since our last visit has been the USA and they have no reason to go back.

However with the economic growth in India, China and Russia we may see man return to the moon. In fact Russia have started a program to get to the moon by 2030.

On the faking issue, all the conspiracy theories about it being fake can be debunked very easily.

With conspiracy theories of this scale you have to realise if it was fake there would be literally thousands of people who would have to be in on it. Now are you telling me none of these thousands of people have spoke out?

One thing about the moon landings puzzles me and that is when Aldrin & Armstrong lifted off from the lunar surface to return to the Orbiter.

Who zoomed out the camera showing it taking off? Sound quality from the atronauts wasn't all that good at the time so the technology to zoom a camera out remotely from Earth would have been haphazard at best.

They should have landed the module in Nevada. They could have had a life size model of the Statue of Liberty lying on its side and everyone could have worn ape suits.

Steven Spielberg....

hhmmmm

was a very un-known talented young man at that time...

apparently this moon landing gave him the very funding to start to make E.T.

buzz aldrin has been asked a million times about the moon landing and many a time he has said off record that we did not land..

think it was just propaganda to lift the mood of the nation..

now the twin towers was the other best bit of propaganda demolition movie ever screened..

I just logged in and sawa this thread..........WTF?

The moon landings weren't faked.....We went back several times after the 1969 moon landing, the program ran untill 1973 when the funding was cut (because the rockets and missions were incredibly expensive, us fickle public were no longer as excited by men on the moon, the Russians were no longer competing to get there and the whole thing had really just been a publicity stunt following the speach of an assasinated president).

We can tell that we went to the moon because we got any number of inventions from the space program which are now in everyday life (advances in computing being one of them, teflon on our pots n pans being another).

Not so sure about the twin towers though............

But a lot of the stuff we have like teflon etc to help everday life was because of things we found in the spacecrafts from Roswell

There is only one light source on the moon! I.e. The sun! Yet, how come the astronaughts have 2 shadows in some pics! And other shadows are longer than some! There is a footprint UNDER the lunar module! And if you watch the video of armstrong and buzz in apollo there are 2 earths! 1 in the left window and 1 in the right! Maybe they did land but, i personally have my doubts, there are too many anomalies!

Think you will find that Buzz`er is rather pissed off at nasa and the actuall guy he punched Worked for a company who supplied nasa ..

he has also refused to make millions in publicity..

unlike armstrong..

or is that fake too..

I went on holiday to Morocco once and wouldn't go back there if it was free so maybe the Americans share the same view of the moon as I have of Morroco, sorry shit hole,and thats why they gave up on the place

Like most conspiracy theories, they eventually pass into the realm of dreamers and lunatics who believe wholeheartedly that Marilyn was murderded, as was Princess Diana, that 9/11 was somehow masterminded by the CIA, and that Roswell was a real incident of a UFO with little green, er grey, er brown men in it crashing in the New Mexico desert.

"

or maybe instead of such theorists being lunatics as you say there just open minded lateral thinking people who dont take as gospel, things there told without many facts. Just hazarding a guess but did you believe tony blairs claim of wmds at the time? Peaople are allowed to challenge opinions events etc..its not a crime. Some are quite rational sane people so why are they lunatics... Could it simply be because they dont believe in the same things as you ?

No I didn't believe Blair about WMDs, but I was of the opinion that Saddam Hussein posed a real threat not only to Western Security but to his own people and deserved to be toppled. How he was toppled didn't really worry me too much as his own people would have, and did eventually, kill him.

As for Roswell etc, I am a realist and know that this planet cannot be the only one with life on it, but I also know that the vastness of the Universe dictates that travelling across it is nigh on impossible and if an advanced species managed to get here after travelling millions of light years they wouldn't crash at the very last minute. I doubt such a civilisation would need a spacecraft anyway and they'd probably be able to bend space itself to step across vast distances.

Well regards your comments on saddam hussein i dunno but prior to blair and bush bull on wmds as an excuse to go plunder iraqs oil they quite liked saddam and irag was allied with the west.

The west liked him cos he wan an enemy to the iranians The relationship soured with bush when saddam decided to sell his oil in euros rather than dollars..from programes ive seen since some say this was possibly one of the biggest reasons America decided to invade ...sorry liberate Irag the propaganda started such as saddam being a baby killer etc etc to rally us to the side of john wayne (bush) Bush needed the backing of the un to invade he didnt get it as at the time after years of arms inspections and embargos no wmds were ever found and to date still havent been found. if you terroise the people with tales of terror on your doorstep some are always going to believe ..some aint. Since Bush and Blairs invasion of Irag and subsequent regime change the facts are that Irag is a lot more unstable than when saddam was in charge and on the brink of civil war. But hey we got some black gold out of it.

..so he didn't gas 5,000 Kurds then? Nor did his sons rape 100s of women simply because they fancied the look of them?

The attrocities of Saddam's regime are well documented and I agree that oil was the catalyst for removing him as many other despots around the world, who don't have lots of lovely oil, are still in situ.

Yes they may be well documented but by who ? oh i the american government who at the time just so wanted public support on there side to go plunder Iraqs oil.

The gassing of the kurds by hussein happened in 1988 considering the americans didnt do anything at all by way of seeking justice for the kurds or sending over invading / liberating force and they were allied with irag they were quite happy to let saddams atrocities of the kurds remain hidden from the world.

Eleven years later bush takes offence to hussein wanting to trade his oil in euros rather than dollars and needs public and international support prior to invading iraq and plundering the countries oil......gets in touch with his media buddies and tells em to spin out how hussein committed genocide on his own people hey and while were at it get in touch with my poodle over the water and get them to make up some stuff of imminent danger with weaopons of mass destruction ...that should do it most of the american and british public fell for bush and blairs bull cos they were terrified by there own governments into believeing them ...the arms inspectors such as david kelly and the united nations begged to differ.

Not at all. Labour used the Murdochs whenever it suited their needs to do so. It was your phraseology that made me chuckle, like Bush just has a core of little reporters hanging around who swallow his bs like it's gospel.

I believe they landed on the moon, and I know Elvis is dead. Why? because I am a cynical romantic....

Therefore I refuse to believe that if the moon landings were faked the Americans could have kept it secret this long, and if the extrovert showman Elvis faked his death he would not have staged it whilst taking a dump

The long time gap between 12 and 14 was due, you are right to say, to the failure of Apollo 13.

In terms of the Gov't Scientist, his suicide was not assisted, but was prompted by his managers in the department and probably by his complicity in the illegal war in Iraq........

Do you mean the pressure put on him by government at the time to lie on there behalf and by doing so eradicate his own proffessional credibilty and say there were wmds when there wasnt any?

If he was complicit in this lie which i dont think he was least he had the decency to fall on his own sword pity tony blair didnt have the same decency.

I learn something new everyday...still in two minds though on whether anyone actually set foot there.

Even in light of all that FACTUAL information? It would take some cover up spanning decades and involving thousands of people to hoodwink the entire planet into believing it happened when it didn't.

What factual information might that be then ?"

The laser ranging reflectors that are positioned on the moon and have determined the moon is moving away from earth at 38 mm per year....

thats probably why we ve not been back,, its too far now for a day trip kids...

"I believe they landed on the moon, and I know Elvis is dead. Why? because I am a cynical romantic....

Therefore I refuse to believe that if the moon landings were faked the Americans could have kept it secret this long, and if the extrovert showman Elvis faked his death he would not have staged it whilst taking a dump "

So he wasn't complicit in the lie (your words) but sacrificed himself to prove it. Sounds like an idiot to me.

"I blame the alien with the second rifle sitting on the grassy knowle...."

He shot him with his zap gun and then transported it to the book depository where Oswald was eating his sarnies and bit into a zinoc-powered laser rifle and thought 'wtf!' just as a lot of people burst in and said, "erm, did you just shoot el pres?" to which he replied, No, I'm patsy." He then jogged off (and shot a copper cos he was like that) and got nailed in a theatre.

What could be simpler. Kennedy Assassination in a Bag.

Well, as there is a set of mirrors on the moon that telescopes fire lasers at to measure how far the moon is from us, and the moon isn't known for growing mirrors, someone must have gone up there at some point.

No, Lincoln got nailed in a theatre but his assassin was nailed in a warehouse (a barn actually), whereas Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and his killer was nailed in a theatre.

The remarkable coincidences between Lincoln and Kennedy don't end there, for example:

Both presidents were elected to the presidency in '60 (1860 & 1960)

Kennedy and Lincoln both have 7 letters

Oswald and Booth both have six.

Both presidents were succeeded by a man named Johnson.

There are 6 letters in each Johnson's first name.

Lee Harvey Oswald and John Wilkes Booth both have 15 letters.

Both presidents were shot in presence of their wives.

Both assassins were killed before they could be put on trial.

Both presidents had a son die during their presidency.

... and lightheatedly...

Before being killed, Lincoln was in Monroe, Maryland, while Kennedy was in Marilyn Monroe.

I give up. You speak of factual tv programmes but apparently they're only factual if they support your personal belief of the universe. Any other factual programme that anyone else believes that contradicts yours is simply fantasy to your eyes/ears.

You are a conspiracy theorist. It is in your genes.

I don't watch the Big Bang Theory. It was a programme about the moon landings. They interviewed the guy who does the measurements and he said the 'fake landing' believers never come and see him, prob because its the one thing that proves that someone actually was there at one point.

I read The Book of Lists when I was a teenager and the Kennedy/Lincoln similarities just kinda stuck, but yes I googled the specifics.

As to JOHN Wilkes Booth founding the Sally Army... he did that between the 14th April 1865 (when he shot Lincoln) and the 26th April 1865 (when he died), yes?

As an aside, the Salvation Army was founded by William Booth in 1865 in LONDON.
