Most incriminating moon hoax evidence?

I originally saw this video in the documentary "A funny thing happened on the way to the moon".. This version spells out what's going on, much better for me..

I know some people believe we never went to the moon.. Some believe we didn't go for the first Apollo mission, but we made it there for other missions..
I believe we did, but this video throws a monkey wrench of doubt, into that belief, for me..



I believe there's no lack of motive to fake a lunar landing, at the height of the cold war, no less, and this video really makes me wonder.. Has it been explained what reason they would be doing this sort of thing? I can see no legitimate reason, outside of the obvious, as to why they would be putting so much energy and time into doing this..

über-mega-evidences that USA went on the moon:

- we placed some mirrors on the moon, so we could measure the growing distance between Earth and it,
- if it was faked, USSR would immediately scream at USA for faking their moon landing.

Hoaxers never have an answer for this. Nor the fact that their was brief concern that a Soviet probe and the Apollo craft may hit each other while in orbit around the moon

What was it about that video that you found compelling? It looked like a bunch of bare, unsupported assertions to me. The overall point it was trying to make is that the view of the Earth was not, as it appeared, of the whole Earth, but of just a small part you could see out the round window. But they never offered anything to support that assertion.

Later, when the astronauts mentioned that the camera was placed right up against the window, the video here says that an arm then went in front of it, but it doesn't look like an arm to me - it looks like the camera shifted and the edge of the window cut off the view a little bit.

That whole video was just craziness, right down to the music. Where'd they get that? Old episodes of Dark Shadows?

What I loved was how they made a big deal about the astronauts taking a "long time" to answer when Houston asked them a question. They conclude it was because they were busy "faking" the shot, and not, you know, light speed delay from them being halfway to the moon, or something....
 
The video has the dubious distinction of not having a single claim that is not easily verified as being false upon even with the most cursory investigation. That said, that really isn't the purpose of the video. It's job is to instill just enough doubt in folks who won't even do the most cursory investigation so they will recommend the video to a friend so more videos can be sold.

First of all, it is a lie that this is "never before seen footage". Anybody with the Apollo 11 DVD from Spacecraft films (I believe) can see the whole, unedited thing. They are in the process of setting up a live broadcast, and are spending some time adjusting the lighting and camera positions for the best result.

For the cutout pretending they are further away from the earth than orbit, just look at the earth. How big are the cloud formations? Not very big. But, most importantly, do you see the clouds and landmasses moving? NO. Look at any video shot from the shuttle and you will see the earth move at a fairly fast rate as they orbit. How did they fake that?

Finally, I can go out any night and see satellites, the shuttle and the ISS as they orbit the earth with just the naked eye. If they never left orbit, how did they hide?

Actually they do. The Russian robotic lander Lunakhod 2 left a reflector, however I don't beleive it is still usable due to the placement being so inaccurate. But it was possible for an unmanned mission to do it.

Not that that means much.
 
The only thing we're missing is a real hoax believer. It just isn't the same...

In your own words Gangularis, what are they doing which looks so suspicious? If you turn off the voiceover, which seems so insistent on telling us what we should be seeing, all you actually see is a shot of the Earth, moving around a bit.

The USSR tracked the Apollo missions by radar as well, IIRC, so they'd have known if there was nothing going on.

Yeah. And I just love the way CTists 'prove' moon landing hoaxes by examining NASA photographs. The Russians could only devote, oh, maybe years worth of manhours by people who know physics and photography without finding anything, and then a guy with two years of college, a web page and a tinfoil hat figures that out in minutes?

Excellent link. Thanks for sharing. ;)



Sorry to disappoint. I found it to be compelling evidence, but I knew there was probably a lot I was missing. Thanks for the info, from everybody.

And that's the way these things always work. Seemingly compelling arguments that rely on the people they are trying to convince not knowing anything really detailed on the subject.

I can act like one, if it will help:

<hoaxer>
Oh, come on! You guys got caught out, and you know it! LOL!!! The video clearly shows manipulation of the shot of the Earth. Manipulation implies fakery. Why would they have such fakery, if the whole thing wasn't fake!! And, why would they need someone to direct the shot, from another location?!

Besides, the U.S. had enough spies in Russia to fake Russia's data, to make it look, to them, that there was a landing.

A moon landing would have been impossible, back then, because they ddn't have the materials to sheild the ship from the sun's own gamma rays, back then! Gamma sheilding wasn't invented until 10 years ago!

And, nobody notices that there is no food on the ship?!! What did the astronaughts eat?!! You so-called "smart" guys are such stupid, gullible sheeple. LOL!!!!
</hoaxer>

Does that make you feel better?
