We could land men on the moon 40 years ago. We couldn't fake it, however.
Now, we're capable of imaging our landing sites, with those utterly amazing little dots and blobs.

You didn't show where these numbers come from..
Now, if you'd tell me....

The ascent modules? Discarded?
If you say the ascent modules were discarded then you won't mind when some other party (not NASA) sends a manned/unmanned probe to collect all of NASA's 'discarded' scrap metal and return it to sell for a mighty profit.
If you say 'discarded' then you are talking about space rubbish plain and simple.
Are you really suggesting that the Apollo 11 Eagle and the Apollo 16 Orion are discarded, space rubbish?

repost the report and ill see what i can find out..
but given this is a published report, backed by the scientists who have published it, proof read by other scientists that see nothing wrong with it, followed up by other scientists to write their own reports..

if anyone is going to believe you, then you must publish or at least show the numbers that make you believe the reports are wrong. raving about like the mad man holding the dooms day sign saying the world is going to end wont get you anywhere.
you want to prove us wrong, then you better back up your claims and show us your numbers.

So you don't even know where the numbers come from, but keep posting them as your evidence? Good one!
And you want me to post the report as well?
Are you serious??
As I said, they may not even have all the numbers yet, or if they do, they haven't published them, afaik.
But there is a number I found on the VA Belts....
" Spaceflights above 300 nautical miles enter the Van Allen belts with a dramatic increase in radiation levels, an item of concern for astronauts. An astronaut in the Van Allen belt without shielding could be exposed to over 500 ųSv/Hr."
www.faa.gov/.../Section%20II.2.14%20Exposure%20to%20Radioactive
Link isn't working. Search for FAA doc "2.14 Exposure to Radioactive Agents - FAA"
So "over 500 ųSv/Hr" is a safe level to you?
1 mSv/h NRC definition of a high radiation area in a nuclear power plant, warranting a chain-link fence
en.wikipedia.org...
We aren't even talking about using aluminum here, which would - as we all know - make the radiation even worse.

I'm wondering why we had to fake a landing on the moon when there's currently a robot on Mars streaming footage back to NASA? How did we snap pictures of the flag on the moon if we'd never actually been to the moon? Honestly, is it so hard to believe we're able to make it to the moon?
Why would people even want to believe that the moon landing was faked? Seriously, I doubt we had anything but the technology to actually do it.

Precisely. I believe we did go to the moon. However, I believe a lot of purported footage of this feat is (unfortunately) poorly recreated, and I'm not sure why this was necessary - not all of it, but enough to give 'hoaxers' ammunition.

It CAN be done. Why isn't it, is the question everyone should be asking.

The Apollo 15 trans-earth TV press conference is the perfect example of that 'ammunition' you speak of. There are no floating objects... there are no solid indications in this video that could prove that it was filmed in 0G.
The Apollo 15 trans-earth TV press conference is not listed in the official NASA published timeline, SP-4029

So what are you going to do when someone goes up there, and all the Apollo landers are sitting there, with boot prints, tracks, etc? Oh wait, you'll just come up with another theory as to how they did it I'm sure. You could be standing on the moon looking at them, and still say they faked it with robots.

We will never get a chance to examine those landing sites, choos. NASA has plans to destroy them, with asteroids.
41 years is a long amount of time to wait for independent confirmation, don't you think?
Why did the Indians switch sides, going with Chandrayaan-1 'NASA' and 'US NAVY' and now switching to the Russian space program assistance with Chandrayaan-2?

Apart from the floating astronauts you mean.... why do you ignore them?
