    Alot of people that are into conspiracies have probably heard about this one.

    I think it's very believeable and there was good reason to lie, if they did.

    So

    Post your ideas on this conspiracy... Did we ever go to the moon?

    There was a really good show on this. But I don't remember who did it.
    I will try and find some of their supporting info and post it here :D

    I think most of the conspiracy theories are unfounded and have been disproven. I don't really care either way, though.

    their has to be logical beliefs as to why we had been on the moon despite the conspiracies:

    1) we would not spend billion of dollars
    2) we would not have the space shuttles today
    3) i can't think of anything else

    hm

    Well If you think... We havnt sent a person to the moon in QUITE a while.

    I think we could have the technology now. But in the 60s???

    Also.. I really do believe we have sent people to space. All the crashes and recent shuttle event are all orbiting the earth. They dont go as far out as the moon. And the satalites(sp?) either.

    lol

    I just think its fun to think of the possiblities. So I generally tend to lean towards the.. no we didnt go side.

    Oh come on, we landed on the moon, it isn't THAT far from Earth in relation to say.. Mars.. or Venus, the two closest planets to us, it's very close, I think we landed on the moon. As for it being in the 1960's.. that makes me doubt sometimes, but It's gotta be true.

    Just for debate's sake I'll play the conspiracy card and say that the American economy in the '60's needed a boost, and 'going to the moon' gave it just that. Regardless of whether we actually got there or if it was fake, the government got the desired results.

    And who's to say the money didn't go somewhere else?

    ...

    the show I watched explained every pic and video in terms of a fake.

    They all could have been shot here on earth.

    Also...

    Yes the goverment had a very good reason. We had to beat the Russians.

    Imagine if the russians had made it to the moon first, what a blow to america it would have been. They would have been much more powerful and used their new found technology for destruction.

    All this was happeneing during a very bad time in the world.


    Lol and who knows where all the money went. If everyone asked that question all the time our goverment would be in alot of trouble


    also... Why has no one gone to the moon since the 60s then???

    We have not had a moon launch... or ANY country for that matter since.

    It was suggested that the hoax was filmed in Area 21 (Nevada desert.)
    Some points the FOX show made were that in the pictures and film supposedly shot on the moon, no stars appeared in the footage. Light would be what keeps the stars from being visible, and since there is no oxygen on the moon, the stars should have been much more visible.

    Even if it was a fake, nowadays, it would be so simple to do, and obviously we landed on the moon at least ONCE, because in recent history, I think we landed on the moon twice or three times?

    I think they did, because, how could the fake something like a video of a rocket going off or being weightless?

    Well weightlessness can be achieved at high-altitudes, and being udnerwater... nowadays you could just photoshop everything lol

    ya true, I know someone who can make it look like a cat is sleeping in sharks so I guess it wouldent be hard for them to use a rocket.

    Well if you believe that they had enough technology to send a man to the moon, then you can't deny that they had enough technology to simulate it.

    I believe it was fake. One of my old Math teachers assigned us a project on this exact topic. He gave us some links to go to with proof they did and proof they didn't land on the moon.

    I'll try to rummage them up and link them for you guys.

    I think you misunderstood the consipiracy. It's not that did we ever go to the moon, its did we ever go to the moon first with Armstrong and the other two. Americans have actually landed on the moon multiple times, and are planning on going again within the next decade. I used to think it was staged too, till I saw all the moon landing pictures from all the moon landings (i think there were 3-4 total) and they all look the same. Hopefully we'll be able to go to mars before I die!
