One case in point is the flag waving when an astronaut passes by, the waving is not from the astronaut moving the pole to place it better. The pole/flag has long stabilized and is still untill an Astronaut passes by.

I just have a hard time believing that we landed on the moon over 30 years ago using computers with as much memory as a simple calculator and also doing so on our 1st try.
Nasa scientists say part of the reason we can't go to Mars right now is because of radiation, yet the moon should have more of it due to it's closer proximity to the sun
Anyone that believes that we went to the moon for a fact must also believethat technology in general has not advanced one bit since the early 70's
We supposedly went there 6 or 7 times in a row without failure
back then and now we are not able to?
If we truely did go there I guarentee all of you that we would have build some type of outpost there, just like we've build space stations

The earth is orbiting the sun at about 400,000 mph. on the way back from the moon, they would have to perfectly align their re-entry into earths orbit. I would believe that would take more computations then a computer with that low of memory could provide.
The comment about technology makes perfect sense. Read it again.
As of right now the US does not posses the techonogly to go to the moon.
Had it costed 50 billion back then it would now cost 5 billion or less. Just as VCR'S costed $1000+ when they first came out and now they cost $30. get it?

There is no telling how violently a flag on the Moon should react.
The motion would be from momentum.
Not the wind.
Even on Earth.
On the Moon with less gravity and no atmosphere what should be
the reaction.
It might be exactly what we saw.

One thing to remember about Apollo 11 (first landing)... they installed a laser reflection experiment (forget the actual name of the project) that involved the installation of a special mirror on the moon's surface. The experiment wasn't accomplished previously with automated landers because it required on-the-spot human intervention with final adjustments of the reflector.
Universities around the world are still using the reflector today.

That's not even possible, all Apollo missions landed on the dark side of the moon.
- Array of photographic and video evidence, showing shadow vectors going in different directions indicating a close light source
- Cropped & merged photos
- Flag waving (seriously, come on)
- It's not possible to go from the Earth to the moon and back in one go, with the normal rocket/fuel technology used - as said famously by von Braun.
- Van Allen radiation belts, also the fact that the Apollo craft had no lead to protect them from radiation.

- in a non realesed, unedited photo shows two spot lights which are supposed to be the sun.
- foot prints on the moon are to deep and structured as the moon contains to little amount of water to hold such a shape.
- vast reports of tv production company in england mgm i think giving us goverment use of studio where astronauts were seen acting out moon landing days before 'launch'
im sure there are many more if you wish to add you evidence or feel free to contradict.

NASA is insisting that a manned mission to Mars may be futile due to the intense solar radiation the astronauts would be exposed to. I can't imagine that Mars, having an atmosphere and being farther away from the Sun, can be any less dangerous (due to radiation) than going to the moon.
William, if you have a video of the moon landings try speeding them up. You might notice that the astronauts and the space jeep seem a lot less bouncy - and a whole lot more earthy.
Besides, have you seen the way those 'moon jeeps' move? Without gasoline? Considering the sucky nature of present-day battery-powered vehicles, I highly doubt they were electric...
Man has not been to the moon.

The moon has no atomsphere. No atomsphere means no wind. No wind means no flag flapping. Now flag flapping means fake landing.
