Well, I tell ya, I tend to believe the evidence of the
Lunar Surface Journal and the overwhelming
scientific data over some weak conspiracy theory. As with any NASA mission there are thousands of people employed as contractors anyone could step
forward any disclose any foul play. I do not see that happening. To the contrary, there is evidence that these people are debunking the hoax theory.
Take a look at this information concerning
communication and telemetry. In addition, would NASA
really have faked 6 missions to the moon?? It wasn't just a single trip. Then went back 5 more times.
Furthermore, in the next couple of month NASA is launching
LRO (Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter) which has as part
of it mission objective... to photograph all six lunar landing sites, as well as debris left (rover, LM launch platform, etc) left behind during these
missions. Now if NASA had faked the lunar mission, then why would they send reconnaissance? You think they would expose themselves? The hoax
theory simply does not make any sense to me.
It was approx 10yrs from the time the soviets launched sputnik til the US launched Apollo. In that time, there was major developments in ballistic
missile technology during the cold war. Do you think that the Soviet had the ability to track missile trajectory?? They would have certainly called
our bluff if this had been low earth orbit trickery. Think about it.
