What do you mean “And did they”?

Only a DAMN FOOL IDIOT thinks we had the ability to fake the moon landings with the technology we had at the time.

Even then, only an IDIOT would think we faked it in the first place.

I recall looking at some site years ago with all of the supposed photos from a stage somewhere - seemed the argument was with lighting, shadows, etc.

I wonder if the government DID stage some photos. Either to show if the landing(s) did fail and to use as propoganda, or as sort of higher quality PR photos. Of course, that is assuming that the photos that were being discussed were fake. I imagine that lighting on the moon (with a bright sun and perhaps a bright earth reflection) is different than here on Earth.

Why did we never return there, when we have billions for wars and redundant infrastructure to please Labor Unions.

Because the Liberals got the microphone, and rallied under the banner of the 'po', howling the battle cry of "For the chilrennnnn!!" stripped away funding from outer space to feed the starving chilluns right here on Earf.

Well, you get what you pay for, and now we have more of those 'po' chilluns, and the fattest 'po' starving chilluns on the Earf, ever.

We would have been better off with more boxes of rocks.

...yet if they were actually on the Moon, there is no gravity to make it dribble...

Think that one over. The moon exerts 1/6 the Earth's gravity. Not as much, but enough to still bring things that go up, down.

But has BPEarthgrotch chimed in on this yet? He is sure to have the truest true facts, revealed to him by the nine foot tall aliens living in the mountain.

No information as provided by nine foot tall Aliens has yet been posted.
But now you’ve alerted me to the possibility of such, hope it is posted soon. LOL.

Are you saying that you haven’t heard about Gilgamesh and the Nephilim Giants written about in Genesis .6? Gilgamesh was the ruler and builder of Uruk 5000 years ago. He was said to stand 16 feet tall. There is a life sized statue of him at The Louve in France. The statue portrays Gilgamesh strangling a lion, giving the apperance of an adult man about to throw a house cat away from him. A distant cousin was King Og, who stood a mere 14 feet tall.The Canaanites worshiped these giants as Gods.

The nutcase we are referring to, one bpearthwatch, honestly believes there is a secret underground base in Dulce New Mexico where “reptoids” have been holding a civil war or some such.
Supposedly between two “reptoid brothers”.

The Anakim and their relations are of no relation to what we’re babbling about.

If you watch film of Neil Armstrong setting his canteen down, you can see Tang dribbling from the loose cap that he forgot to tighten down, yet if they were actually on the Moon, there is no gravity to make it dribble.

Er, the Moon has gravity. . . 1/6th that of Earth's gravity. A 180 pound man on Earth, stepping on the same scale on the Moon would see only 30 pounds on the dial. The Tang would still dribble. . . and it would slosh easier and longer. Sorry.

Not necessarily, but it lends support to the belief that the Moon is made of cheese — all I know is that when it’s consumed, a lot of gas is produced ....

Most people think the moon is made of Green Cheese. That's wrong. True, real, bonifide lunar scientists know what's its made out of. That's why the moon walkers wear hermetically sealed suits to walk around up there. They know it's really Limburger Cheese!

My oldest brother, Richard, fought in Korea. He was a tall, handsome man. He was a DI, and
he knew how to impel people to hop to. He passed away in 1990, cancer, only 58 years old.

I’m going to snag the URL of the great punch and save it to watch again.

It’s nice to know that Buzz “has a way” to deal out retribution to some yurkie (I just made that
up) who calls him a liar, cheat, and thief.

Really? Do I feel like a fool for making a joke about Neil
Armstrong drinking Tang out of a canteen while walking on the moon? No, do you feel pretty silly?

It would’ve taken more effort to fake them than to launch them for real.

Thanks lee. Extra to APoD.

> About 10 years after that, some people began asking questions...

The ‘questions’ actually started before the first landing — the dolt who dreamed up the “can’t survive the Van Allen Belt radiation” nonsense got fired from his job with one of the contractors who built part of the Apollo program hardware.

> You gotta be crazy or some kind of communist to question whether we did it.

While it does serve the interests of commies and other cultists to undermine people’s confidence in reality, I doubt that commies would have come up with this one.

Charlatans irritate me.

The science channel is running a bunch of aliens crap today right now they’re “suggesting” that the Martian moon Phobos is an alien space station because it “can’t” be in that low of an orbit. Never mind that it is in that low of an orbit and getting lower all the time.
