You mention several times "what you heard". Where did you hear this crap, I would bet either a conspiracy wacko website or Youtube video, NOT from a credible source who has any idea what they are talking about?
Of course the landings were real, all six of them!
The "we never landed on the moon" wackos are the ones perpetuating the biggest hoax ever, based on the complete ignorance of the facts by conspiracy theory wackos, out to prove just how totally ignorant they really are.
I do not believe we landed on the moon, I KNOW we did. Moon landing hoax wackos merely regurgitate the same old tired lies, most of them originally put forward by the profoundly ignorant Bill Kaysing in a book and a horrible TV program on Fox TV in 2001. NONE of his crazy claims stands up to serious scrutiny. NONE! The fact that all of the Apollo landing sites have since been imaged by various satellites from lunar orbit is hard to explain away! I am including links to a number of sites with the truth about these claims.
The moon landing hoax believers are just plain delusional and beyond all human help. As I have also said, I find it amusing, in a kind of sad way, that the same people who think that the most thoroughly documented voyage of exploration in history was a hoax are willing to believe any wacko conspiracy theory or doomsday prophecy. No critical reasoning skills people?
In addition to the sites already mentioned, which have actual FACTS to refute the myths and lies put forward by the lunar landing deniers, some of us actually have personal observations to prove that the missions DID occur. I was a member of an amateur radio/amateur astronomy group at the time the Apollo missions were flown, and among other things we distributed tracking information that allowed many of us to point our telescopes at the spacecraft on the way to the moon. Can any of the wackos explain to me what I was seeing at the expected coordinates, if it was NOT the Apollo spacecraft on the way to the moon???? Many others at sites around the world observed and some imaged the spacecraft in transit to the moon. Also, I have friends, other ham radio operators who were able to receive the audio and video directly from the lunar surface. I have seen their videos, kind of noisy since these friends were using much smaller dish antennas than NASA did, but they were clearly recognizable and their antennas were aimed directly at the moon. Explain that, moon hoax wackos!
A couple of quotes I like, the first from Carl Sagan:
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
From Daniel Patrick Moynihan, it SO applies to the moon hoax wackos:
You are entitled to your own opinion, but you are NOT entitled to your own facts.
Some of my qualifications to make these statements follow, what are yours?
My dad was an engineer on the Apollo program.
I am also an engineer, and spent over 20 years in aerospace.
Personal observations of the Apollo spacecraft on the way to the moon.
Common sense.
