There was at one time a woman here, Skeeter, that was the site's no 1 top rated player , and she maintained the Apollo missions were a fraud and she had proof, though when asked about it she always ignored the question
Proof that chess ability and IQ are not related.
I think thaat she was so stupid that she barely knew how to play chess and was using a program for all her games. It only took 5 years for her to get banned.

If she was a sub then money talks my friend.

And yes, it's not a newsflash that paying to be here would give someone carte blanche to be a jerk and get away with it.

There has been a lot of easily debunkable trash on the internet concerning this. What it comes down to is that we can not prove one way or another. Even the moon rocks could have been collected in Antarctica. I hope it happened and the Van Allen radiation belts were not a problem. This leaves the door open for a mission to mars one day.
How many morons on this site think so?

Several facts make the fraud a convincing possibility.
1. NASA was given a massive taxpayer funded budget, based on the Moon landings.
2. The try for a return trip failed.
3. There has never been a third try, even though technology is generations ahead of when the supposed 1st try was successful.
4. Tell me that a return voyage would be scientifically insignificant.
5. It seems from the above that the propaganda value of the landing was greater than any scientific value.

Besides, do you not think the Russians would have been monitoring what NASA was up to? I think they would have known if nobody actually went to the moon.

Originally posted by normbenignThere was about 40 billion reasons for it to have been fraud. About 135 billion in todays dollars. Looks like the Ruskies were involved with some shenanigans of their own in putting the first man in space. I have never thought there was much reason to return to the moon, so I have not put much weight in that. There are some good arguments from the positive side, but I can see it would be very difficult to convince the nay sayers as all the proof would be from the folks that may have perpetrated it. If it did happen as we were told then it was one heck of an accomplishment. Like Kennedy said we went because it was hard. Very little to gain. The laser bounce from the moon can be accomplished without the reflectors, so what was gained? The appearance of beating the cold war foes to justify the cost? Hard to say.

One could argue that the government has an interest in covering their original story.

Originally posted by normbenignExcept that in this case, suspicions are fed entirely by peoples love of conspiracy theories. You can't get much more convincing arguments than photos, videos, rocks, testimony from the astronauts, later photos from satellites currently orbiting the moon, NASA, US government etc. I mean seriously, what more could you ask for? What would you consider a positive side argument that is not in the list above?
