What’s interesting to me, studying Apollo and each mission is like peeling an onion. I knew these guys had balls that clank, everyone knows that, but if you take the time to study the details and circumstances and twists of fate of these missions it is truly astonishing.

Seriously. The urge to explore and learn far exceeds anything else ... like the massive risks involved. We have complete respect for the people who performed these missions.

Just a quick refresher: Over more than 10 years, Project Apollo involved 400,000 people working at major contractors such as Boeing, North American Aviation, Douglas Aircraft Company, Rocketdyne, Grumman Aircraft Corporation, IBM, Motorola, MIT University and 20,000 other subcontractors en there was even after 55 years not a single whistleblower? Converted to today, the costs were 341 billion dollars and we've been there SIX times. This is the main reason why 'we' didn't go back. After Apollo 11 there were 5 more other landings. Apollo 12 to 17 except 13 Kubrick was a filmmaker, not a director of live broadcasts. The FIRST moon landing was watched LIVE by 500 to 600 million people WORLDWIDE! No self-respecting film director is going to make the same movie SIX times from the same set with bad camera equipment and only different actors. Van Allen belts? Astronauts are protected by their spacesuits and by the metal shell of the capsule and they fly shortly through the least strong belts. Why no stars? All films and photos were taken during daylight. Trying to get stars in a photo will result in an overexposed photo. Are all the data lost? No. The Ampex tape recordings of the Slow-Scan TV broadcast and telemetry were overwritten from only Apollo 11 but all the 16mm films and photos are still in the NASA Archive. All tapes etc. from the later missions have all been preserved. Can we still see the landing sites? Photos of the Apollo landing sites were taken by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO), the Chinese lunar satellite Chang'e 2 the Indian lunar satellite Chandrayaan-2 the South Korea’s Danuri probe and the Japanese SELENE lunar probe.

Can't thank you enough for this comment. You're amazing, @ApolloKid1961

Only an uneducated idiot thinks the moon landings were faked. If it was faked, the Soviets would have had a field day exposing it.

Thanks for that. Also there was a mirror placed so they can aim a laser at it from Earth and measure the distance. As if any of these guys would skip out on their friends flying in Vietnam to fake anything. Sofa buttheads think about fakes...because they do it all the time.

Excellent summary! Far and away more implausible to have had faked it. If you could pull off doing it once with your enemy being "complicit" (USSR) then sit down and shut up. Don't fake it 5-6 more times - I'm including Apollo 13 in there. Do you mind if I copy your comment and use it elsewhere?

Absolutely. Not to mention the USSR was following the US space program intently (it was a race to the moon remember), and would have been the first to blow the whistle if they detected something amiss or any attempt at fakery. They tracked the Apollo spacecraft to and from the moon.

Amen, a clown show, just like people who're no longer here still voting for Biden... bet everyone who believes this is also vaxxed to the max.
