The doubters could have just watched Myth Busters and saved themelves some time.

Here’s one thing you can see that proves the authenticity. No Apollo recreation done in the movies had space suits that had the inflated look to them, they all look like suits with equal pressurization to the outside atmosphere.
Since the Apollo astronauts were in the vacuum of space, they have an inflated look to them, you can also see how stiff their movements are because of that pressurization.

No re-creation I’ve seen has been able to duplicate that. Of course that won’t mean much to the ignorant, they’ll just see another photo that they don’t understand and believe it’s all fake.

Because that’s not the flag’s shadow.

Where is the shadow of the flag then?

[Redcloak]

To the right where it’s supposed to be.

I guess the real question is: If NASA went through all of the trouble to fake the landings, then why did they skimp when it came to adding a flag later? Why wasn’t it on the set to begin with?

I am not one who doubts that we went but I will say some of the photos have anomalies in them.

[Redcloak]

You’re talking to an optical engineer. I have yet to see any anomalies in any of the photos.

Have you seen of Richard Hoglans photos?
