Who Started the Moon Landing Hoax Conspiracy Theory?

It is clear the pictures are hoaxed. My guess 99.5 pct of pictures were worthless. So they did hoaxed them. Why... No viewfinder (helmet blocked it, no autofocus, no way changing the film outside(gloves too bulky and had to be removed to change film, not enough air to go aboard to constantly change it and radiation), mounted on the chest with basically a couple hours to learn (even if they had 1 year to train would not have mattered., multiple light sources, nothing special about the Hasselblad camera(bought off ebay for 50dollars). Perfect composed pictures are 1x10x6 chance when with a live camera feed mounted to their chest, could not even get the other astronaut in frame with help from NASA guiding him. Go buy a couple cameras mount them on your chest, go find a dump and take pictures, out of thousand image one might be perfect. There are time where the rules of photography make no sense on these images. There are repeating background, multiple light sources because multiple times images have shadows failing in different directions. There are images where a subject in shadow magically is lite up, images where the camera angles are wrong, images where the built in lines in the camera disappear impossibly. The math for the number of photos taken with what had to be done to change the film, do not equal the time it would have taken. Hassleblad said the only way the film could have been changed was having the astronaut to remove their gloves depresserizing the suit. The film was not protected by any thing special, so radiation would be a issue. So again it had to be done in the lander. Like I said they got back realized all the camera images were crap and had to create something for posterity sake.

TheZXKUQYB Nonsense.why would they need viewfinders to photograph landscapes? The films were loaded in cassettes, which they only had to click on the Camera. No problem doing it with gloves on. If There are multiple lightsources, where are all the multiple shadows, cast by every object? The ”disappearing” cross haires are a chemical thing in the film emulsion. You can easily see for yourself, that they only ”disappear” behind very Bright objects.

NASA started the Moon landing conspiracy hoax. In 1969 Apollo 11 never landed men on the Moon.Today I Found Out and rockethead7 are living in a fantasy world. The Apollo program, also known as Project Apollo, was the fake United States human spaceflight program carried out by NASA, which did not land men on the Moon in 1969, following Project Mercury, which put the first Americans in space. Men never landed on the Moon and we are not "returning to the Moon" in 2026. Remember when you were confidentially telling everyone that Artemis was going to return men to the Moon in 2024, then 2025, then 2026? That seems pretty recent. The beauty of the internet is that we can track your lies and false predictions. Now we are not "returning to the Moon" any earlier than 2027, if at all. Times change and reality catches up with us. We do not have the technology today to land men on the Moon and we never did have that technology and we will never have the technology to colonize Mars within the next five hundred years. We are nowhere near sending men that far into space.

The Union had a submarine, which was powered by men pedalling the drive shaft. This is not the earliest record of submarines though, with several accounts of such vessels appearing as far back as the reign of Alexander the Great! During the 1600’s, there were demonstrations of people going underwater in vessels and resurfacing again, so it’s not at all beyond belief that such vessels predated WWI by a number of centuries.

It was a thought that occurred to many, many people independently because of a perfectly understandable mistrust of our government. I asked my Dad (a surgeon) if he thought the Moon landings were a staged event, and he said, "No I don't. But if it came out that it was all faked, I wouldn't be at all surprised or shocked."

@@ValMartinIreland Incidentally, to truly answer your question, the Soviets had no "monitoring equipment" that would observe a person walking on the Moon at that distance. They did however, have the technological means to prove whether the U.S. actually did have their astronauts walking on the Moon. They had several unmanned lunar missions starting in 1959. They first orbited the Moon in 1966. The gravity of the Moon is 1/6 the gravity of Earth. Orbiters can therefore travel much closer to the Moons surface than they can to the Earths surface. Many clear photographs can be taken. In other words, it would have been impossible for the U.S. to succeed in fooling the world population for more than a short time. The Soviets would have sent more orbiters & found no evidence that there was a manned landing. It would have been beyond idiocy for the U.S. to claim they landed on the Moon knowing they would get caught lying very shortly. The final proof is, Japan, China, the European Space Agency, & I think India, have sent orbiters, & in some cases landers to the Moon.
