How can people really believe the moon landing happened? its been proven a hoax?

Im amazed people really beleive the moon landing really happened- its been proven fake- - What, were we more advanced in 1969 than we are in 2007? Here are a few examples of proof the moon landing was fake *The flag waved as if by a breeze- with no air on the moon, that should not have happened. *A rocket cannot propel an obect in the vacume of space, with nothing to push against. *With no atmosphere on the moon, the sky should have been filled with stars, but there were none... *Interesting how the astronots were prefectly illuminated, the lights focused on them- as if they were on a SOUND STAGE *If we had the ability to fly to the moon- why cant we go back? *If men had landed on the moon, the radiation from the sun should have killed them...*It took all those rockets boosters to get to the moon, but the lander itself easily flew back to earth The moon landing was a hoax to make the rusiians believe we were years ahead of them in technology. If we did go to the moon-

Answer:
1) Twelve 12 American astronauts have walked on the moon. Apollo 11: Neil Armstrong & Buzz Aldrin Apollo 12: Pete Conrad & Alan Bean Apollo 13: << failed to land on the moon >> Apollo 14: Alan Shepard & Edgar (Ed) Mitchell Apollo 15: David Scott & James Irwin Apollo 16: John Young & Charles Duke Apollo 17: Eugene (Gene) Cernan & Harrison Schmidt 2) Why haven't we been back? a) American astronauts visited the moon on six occasions. b) The "moon race" was an extension of the cold war. It was mostly about national prestige. We got there first and achieved our primary objective. There was some good science: surveys, measurements, sample collection. But it was mostly about being there first. Once we achieved our primary objective, there was no political will to go back. There still isn't. Perhaps, if we discover He3 or something else valuable, there will be. c) I used to travel to Crested Butte, Colorado every year to ski. Because I don't go anymore, does it mean that I never went? 3) What about the Van Allen radiation belts? Wouldn't it have killed the astronauts? The existence of the Van Allen radiation belts postulated in the 1940s by Nicholas Christofilos. Their existence was confirmed in *1958* by the Explorer I satellite launched by the USA. The radiation in the Van Allen radiation belts is not particularly strong. You would have to hang out there for a week or so in order to get radiation sickness. And, because the radiation is not particularly strong, a few millimeters of metal is all that is required for protection. "An object satellite shielded by 3 mm of aluminum will receive about 2500 rem (25 Sv) per *year*." "In practice, Apollo astronauts who travelled to the moon spent very little time in the belts and received a harmless dose. [6]. Nevertheless NASA deliberately timed Apollo launches, and used lunar transfer orbits that only skirted the edge of the belt over the equator to minimise the radiation." When the astronauts returned to Earth, their dosimeters showed that they had received about as much radiation as a couple of medical X-rays. 4) The U.S. government scammed everyone? In 1972, there was a politically motivated burglary of a hotel room in the Watergate Hotel in Washington, D.C. There were only about six or eight people who knew about it. However, those people, including Richard M. Nixon, the President of the United States, failed to keep that burglary a secret. It exploded into a scandal that drove the President and a number of others from office. If six or eight people couldn't keep a hotel room burglary a secret, then how could literally thousands of people could have kept their mouths shut about six faked moon landings? Not just one moon landing, but six of them! 5) What about the USSR? Even if NASA and other government agencies could have faked the six moon landings well enough to fool the general public, they could NOT have fooled the space agency or military intelligence types in the USSR. The Soviets were just dying to beat us. If the landings were faked, the Soviets would have re-engineered their N-1 booster and landed on the moon just to prove what liars Americans are. Why didn't they? Because the landings were real and the Soviets knew it. 6) Why does the flag shake? Where are the stars? Who took the video of Neil Armstrong? Take a look at the first two websites listed below. They deal well with all of the technical questions. 7) Finally, please tell us what you would accept as definitive evidence that the six moon landings were real. Is there anything?

And there are still people who believe the earth is FLAT. Some people are just too stupid to know anything. All your questions have been refuted by professionals. All the buzz about the fake moom landing began on February 15, 2001 when Fox television aired a program called Conspiracy Theory: Did We Land on the Moon? Shows like Conspiracy Theory ought to be as tongue-in-cheek as they sound. Unfortunately, there was an earnest feel to the Fox broadcast, enough to make you wonder if the program's makers might have fallen under their own spell and convinced others of their folly. FACT: A dozen astronauts (laden with cameras) walked on the Moon between 1969 and 1972. Nine of them are still alive and can testify to their experience. They didn't return from the Moon empty-handed, either. Just as Columbus carried a few hundred natives back to Spain as evidence of his trip to the New World, Apollo astronauts brought 841 pounds of Moon rock home to Earth.

Proven by whom? The flag waved because of exhaust from the rocket. I feel sorry for you. Neil Armstrong and NASA lied? Get a grip.

Wow. How terribly naive you are. First, do you really think that our government could keep that kind of secret for that long of time? Second, the flag did not wave because of a breeze, it waved because the astronaut shook it. It continued to "wave" because there was no atmospheric friction to slow it down quickly. A rocket can propel an object in the "vacume" of space.....for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction..... The sky was filled with stars but because the foreground was so bright you cannot see the stars on the picture because they are so relatively dim. The astronauts were perfectly illuminated because the sun is a perfect illuminator.... We have had the ability to go back to the moon but there has not been a pressing need to do so. It only took all those booster rockets to escape from the deep gravity well of earth. the gravity well of the moon is much less therefore it required much less thrust to escape. I think that that should answer all of your "proof".

"American Patriot" indeed! Your right, that's absolute proof. Pathetic.

1) Astronauts inserted wires into the flag so it would appear upright. 2) You have no concept of aerospace engineering or Newton's laws of motion. Go to the airport and watch a plane take off - which will hopefully give you an idea about jet propulsion. 3) TV broadcasting technology was pretty poor in 1969. Not to mention beaming TV signals from the moon into your living room from 186,000 miles away. 4) Many of the original engineering documents are no longer legible, as they were written on somewhat primitive paper, and have succombed to acids, handling, etc. Furthermore, as the moon has so little to offer in the realm of exploration, building more massive Saturn V rockets isn't included in the NASA budget. 5) The lander didn't return to earth. They left the surface of the moon, docked with the capsule above the moons surface, and then jettisoned the lander.

All of these alleged "facts" you recited have been explained or rebutted already -- where have you been? If the U.S.A. faked the moon landing, then why didn't the USSR expose us in order to embarrass us? You know that they would have certainly tried. Did NASA fake the accidents, and deaths, of Astronauts too? And where did all of those Saturn-V rockets go that we all watched taking off? And if rockets don't work in space without air to push against, then how does the Space Shuttle fire its retrorockets to bring itself back down? And so on....

im not even going to justify your question with an answer (wait, i just did), im just gonna call you a dumb-***

Darned if you ain't right..! Must be so 'cause Fox TV said so, and the internet never lies either. Also -- the Earth is flat, aliens have taken over Earth, and Elvis is alive and working in a donut shop in Cleveland. "American Patriot," your scientific ignorance is only surpassed by your gullibility. I could refer you to a dozen websites where each and every one of your so-called 'proofs' are torn apart, but I won't bother since you're obviously intent on perpetuating your personal stupidity.
