I have to admit that this is one conspiracy theory that leaves me laughing. The idea that the Moon landings were faked. I have posted to people who believe it to be a hoax before and every single supposed proof of it being faked can be disproved.
The funniest of things is...where do these people think that these Giant Saturn V rockets were going or went to after they were launched?
They went into Earth orbit.
...and were observed to leave Earth orbit and go to the Moon:
Telescopic Tracking of the Apollo Lunar Missions
Apollo missions tracked by independent parties
(Note the references to amateur astronomers' sightings of Apollo published in "Sky and Telescope" magazine).

Even the Soviets...who would have LOVED to decry the lunar landings as fakes...were not so stupid as to attempt to discredit them as it was very easy for any country with a Radar Telescope to follow the travel of the Lunar Orbiter and Lander all the way to the Moon and back.
Wrong, they cant even do it today.
Now THAT is just plain silly!.

I'm sure you have more than enough proof that the cold war never happened. I'd assume you wouldn't make such an outlandish claim without any basis, would you? I also assume you have proof that hundreds of HAM operators from around the globe were NASA employees?edit on 29-1-2013 by captainpudding because: typo

Don't forget that all the Russian military radio operators who officially work for the KGB were really being payed by NASA.

As stated previously, please do at least something to prove this claim. You can't just say the cold war never happened and expect us to take your word for it

But then JFK was assassinated, LBJ took over and he removed any and all forms of cooperation with the USSR and the moon race became USA v. USSR.

But how do you know they were genuine amateur astronomers and not NASA stooges?
Duh! The Soviets were in on the hoax!
No, actually its just the plain truth...Its the real reason "they haven't been back to Moon"...Because they couldn't get there then and they still can't do it now. Well, I should rephrase that, they could get them to the Moon but they would be DOA!

Why don't you try to supply some evidence that suggests they might be?
Duh! The Soviets were in on the hoax!
Again, where's your evidence? If the USSR was in on it, why didn't they fake their own Lunar landings for there own national prestige?
Money...The USSR was broke trying to keep up militarily with the US. In exchange for a large sum of American Dollars the Russians agreed to play ball with the Apollo hoax. Everyone has their price!

More baseless and hollow claims with no shred of evidence. Why would they be dead on arrival?

Radiation, he's going to say radiation. He won't do the simple proof of showing the radiation levels for the journey were greater than the shielding capacity of the spacecraft to demonstrate that a lethal dose of radiation would have been received, he'll just say radiation and leave it at that.
