Is Apollo 11 moon mission real or fake?

Question

Is Apollo 11 moon mission real or fake?

Answer 1

Real



What is fake is the alleged intelligence of all the idiots who claim it's fake

Answer 2

My friend, here is how to debunk the "fake moon landing" and all other conspiracy theories:



If you knew that the moon landing was e.g. filmed in a Hollywood studio, how much do you think the media is willing to pay you for proofs? Millions of dollars? Such a scandal would ruin the United States international reputation for many generations.



How much would the government have to pay you to keep your mouth shut, never telling a friend or family, for all of your life and make sure you don't leave a postmortem memoire? Even more millions?



Now multiply this by the number of people that would need to be involved in such a hoax. That's a lot of money! No government has that kind of budget and it would be muuuuuuuch cheaper to ... send a man to the moon! ;-)



You can apply the same for the Roswell "alien" incident, the FBI assassination of Kennedy, the White House or Mossad orchestrated 9/11, the Alaskan HAARP weather modification, the chemical spreading of "chemtrails" and all other weird theories.

Answer 3

Apparently you haven't heard of my own documentary "The Shining Code 3.0". It details the clues Kubrick left behind saying that the Moon landings *were* real. Example: early in the film, we see Jack, Wendy, and Danny together in a Volkswagen Beetle. Can't you see the significance of that? No? Then let me explain. Three people, together, traveling in a tiny, enclosed compartment, down a lonely road, to a remote and desolate destination. This is *clearly* Kubrick's way of saying that the Apollo journeys clearly *did* happen, yet he feared saying so openly for fear of being declared a Rationalist and so being persecuted and ostracized by the conspiracy theorist community.

.

There is no doubt about what Kubrick was trying to tell us with such coded messages. The Moon landings definitely happened.

Answer 4

Apollo 11 was very real. As you say, science and mathematics back up that position. One pop culture book about Stanley Kubrick does not trump all the evidence.



The idea that Kubrick was involved in faking Apollo is ludicrous, especially when you consider where he was living and working at the time. As much as the idea that the moon landings were faked in a studio just up the road from where I live in England amuses me, the lack of evidence (and when questioned the lack of knowledge about Kubrick's work on the part of the hoax believers) leaves the idea rather flat.



Apollo was real. End of story.

Answer 5

Looks at the evidence. Ponders the significance.... ponder..... examine..... check



Yep, it happened.





What is The Shining Code 2.0 and why does it have any relevance when the evidence is there?



Edit. OK, description of Shining Code given. It still has no bearing on the evidence and is irrelevant to the landings proof.

Answer 6

The moon landing was real. All six of them.



The Shining Code 2.0, like the Bible code should be taken as a bit of fun. The same argument against the Bible code applies to the Shining Code 2.0.



Basically what people are doing is starting with a preconceived idea and searching for patterns and symbols and metaphores etc to justify their preconceived ideas then after gathering enough of them presenting them as an argument. Whenever you take an idea, then take supporting evidence, ignore all contradicting evidence and present it to an uncritical mind it will appear as a persuasive argument. Watch the Shining Code 2.0 again this time with a critical mind and ask yourself questions like what is the symbolism of the ash tray on the desk? How many windows are there in the hotel? What do all these things mean? When you start thinking hang on these are stupid questions it's purely arbitrary, then you'll realize that the arrangement of the cars are also arbitrary, the placement and number of Eagle statues are arbitrary, in fact the whole argument of The Shining being Kubrick's confession is completely risible.

Answer 7

Real

Answer 8

think for your self

I learned that the moon was made of green cheese and a cow jumped over it. I was 3 at the time

Answer 9

As you say, the evidence is overwhelming if you use logic and reasoning skills. The people who don't believe it are people willing to discount mountains of evidence from reliable sources, and then believe uncritically anything any crackpot makes up, whether or not it violates the laws of physics.



I'm sorry to say that you seem to have put yourself in that camp by watching a crackpot conspiracy video and then deciding to throw out everything you previously knew.



Even just the charge of treason. Do you really think that's plausible? Based on what?

Answer 10

Brook, what "evidence" is an alleged book by a film producer, stacked against the MOUNTAIN of credible evidence from many reliable sources that the landings were performed as claimed? There is still ZERO credible evidence that they were not real.



Special compliment to Michel, I had never heard your argument that "if you can prove it, why have you not sold the evidence to the media?" It is a very good point! Just one more rock in the huge mountain of evidence that the landings did occur..



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.
