One of the biggest arguments used by supporters of the lunar landing conspiracy theory is the waving flag. Upon closer examination, I noticed something:
While the bottom corner away from the pole appeared to be waving, the top edge of the flag is stiff. Theory: The flag was supposed to be stiff, but something broke the flag. It just goes back and forth under its own inertia like a pendulum. There's no air to slow it down further.

What do you think? Discuss it among yourselves. Spew out theories, no matter how stupid and off-topic they may be.

Never mind the moon landing, WWII was a hoax.

The Apollo missions' lunar modules left part of themselves on the moon. A base pedestal. Those pedestals are covered with reflectors that are still used to this day along with lasers to accurately measure the distance between the Earth and the Moon. And also to measure continental drift. So if there were no moon missions, then who put the mirrors up there? :p

ALF. Or superman. I forget which.

Actually, they're Captain Planet's sunglasses. He accidentally left them there when he was up there boning Superwoman behind Supermans back.

He was trying to "prove" himself. Apparently the Fantastic Four were making fun of him, calling him "Captain Closet"

Look kids, theres a generic republican cutting down the rainforest/clubbing baby seals/ stealing candy from babies! Lets stop this, while not even attempting to hide the propaganda!


I hated that show even though I was 8 at the time.... I remember 2 episodes. One all the gorillas on the planet have died and its a futuristic city where every1 wheres gas masks. And a 7 yr old girl goes "I believe gorrilas once existed!"
The other is some evil capitalist dude killing whales, no joke.

Well I suppose the fake lunar landing theories aren't as bad as the fake mars rovers theories.....

I'd say Chuck Norris.

I say the moon landings were real. Can you imagine how hard it would be to keep thousands of people quiet about a fake moon landing?

I refuted all the ideas of a conspriacy until I was told aboutthe Van Allen Radiation Belt, and its potential effects.

I spent several years after the fact preaching the gospel of "NOt Possible to reach the Moon" when I read an interveiw with a renouned physicist who had as far as I could tell, nothing to gain in disputing the danger of that specific mission.

I now, realize I dont know enough to have genuinely informed opinion one way or another.

So, I accept the Moon Landing as fact, until conclusive envidence is presented to the contrary. But, while doing that, I still concede my government is totally capable of even that insane level of deception.

Well, NASA is a front, for starters. So are a number of major film studios. Fact is, since 1980, the world's been made far safer ever since Commander Ed Straker of SHADO -
