I read the article out of curiosity and noticed he didn't express any specific reasons he doubted the moon landings. Some people point to the craft that landed on the moon. I doesn't look like something that would be safe. I would be reluctant to risk my life in such a tiny thing with thin walls.

I am not expressing doubt myself. I do wonder about the solar and cosmic radiation issue though. The Earth's magnetic field offers protection from space radiation, so I am wondering if the mission was timed so the Earth was between the sun and moon. From what I understand, if it was the other way around the moon would not have any protection from the Earths MF.

Solar and cosmic radiation is a problem for manned missions to Mars. Finding a light weight solution is difficult. Lead is heavy.

I'm convinced they only do it for publicity. They are playing the media. He'll come out in a few months and say "Just kidding..... but maybe not." It'll get him a few more millions towards his next shoe deal.

Who?!?

Anyway, everybody knows that Kubrick did fake the moon landings, but he was such a finicky perfectionist that he insisted on doing it on location.

No I believe that, as a celebrity athlete, Stephen Curry said this to increase his name recognition. The more people that know who he is, the more money he gets for endorsement deals.

Stephen Curry now says he was joking.
