No "Moon Landing" ever happened. It is not even worth of discussing. Please use elementary logic, and be honest to yourself. It is really not hard to see that it was faked.
This is about the third you've said that in the past two weeks or so. Saying that it's not worth discussing or that you have no interest in discussing it. Why are you posting just to say you have no interesting in discussing the subject? And then you make a claim of how simple it is to see that it's faked, implying that some one would have to be stupid not to see it. But you hide behind your statement of "not worth discussing" I find that incredibly odd. I normally wouldn't bother addressing this, but like I said, this is the third time you've said something like this.
Why not add something useful to the discussion if you're going to make post or just don't post at all.

Odd photo. If you gamma correct it the Earth looks photoshopped in. The background is very odd looking.
118:25:47 Cernan: I want to get the Earth.
118:25:49 Schmitt: Okay. Let me get over here.
118:25:51 Cernan: Get around on that side.
[Jack had moved west of the pole, and now moves back. He overshoots his mark and sprays dust as he stops.]
118:25:54 Schmitt: I don't think it's going...You're a little close, maybe, to have them both in focus. That might do it.
[Gene starts to bend his knees and, in an effort to get Earth in the picture along with Jack and the flag, almost gets down on his knees. His first effort, AS17-134- 20383 gets the flag but very little of Jack and the Earth, his second photo, AS17-134-20384, is much more successful. After he gets up, Gene gives Jack the camera and they trade places.]
[Using planetarium software, we see that, had cloud cover over the southwestern Pacific been lighter, the Antarctica would have been visible at the left and Australia would have been coming into view over the top.]
118:26:08 Cernan: Try that one time, then we'll give up and get to work. (Long Pause)
[Jack holds the camera in his hand and gets it as low to the ground as he can without kneeling.]
118:26:26 Cernan: Point it up a little...Yeah. (Pause)
[This is AS17-134- 20385.]
118:26:32 Schmitt: Let me try it again.
118:26:33 Cernan: Okay.
[This is AS17-134-20386. This photo shows the "red apple" actuator for the purge valve reasonably well.]
118:26:35 Schmitt: I don't know, Geno.
118:26:36 Cernan: Okay.
118:26:38 Schmitt: Let me get over here closer to you. (Pause)
[Once again, Jack almost goes to his knees.]
118:26:43 Schmitt: Okay. That might have got it.

The only real reason to go to the moon according to most landing proponents was to beat the Russians. Why did we have to beat them so many times?
It is strange that there are not any clear photos of the earth with men in them. Human nature would demand this, along with the image of the man in the picture. The degree of difficulty to take them is minimal compared to all the other mission requirements.
