AAP was Skylab, not some operation out in the desert.
Microwave link was used so that no one could intercept the communication, had they used radio wave link, there was the possibility that someone might eavesdrop...The only difference between microwave and radio is wavelength. Nothing about microwave transmission prevents eavesdropping.
Lots of other made-up stuff. The terrain clearly doesn't look anything like the lunar surface.
What Colby says is some sort of guard with a spy scope whose job would be to keep out intruders, is simply a surveyer with a common portable theodolyte.
The Flagstaff training -- which was not "top secret" as Colby claims, but rather extensively documented and depicted prominently in all the Apollo histories -- indeed required the astronauts to learn to describe surroundings in precise scientific terms from the confines of a mockup LM cabin. The LM mockup, of course, looks almost nothing like the real LM.
Molab was a design study that made it to prototype. That it was in any way used in some hypothetical fakery scenario is purely a Colby fantasy. Simply showing an unremarkable picture of a vehicle doesn't mean the story you've told about the picture is true.
No, if you took out the bushes from Arizona it still wouldn't look like the Moon any more than putting bushes
on the Moon turns it into Arizona.
Colby's diagram indeed shows the comm links for the Flagstaff training exercises. Again, no secret. But he simply fantasizes that this setup was used instead for fakery. It follows Colby's overarching method of grabbing easily-obtained, well-published training photos and insisting that they depict instead the means NASA used to fake the landings. Why would they so comprehensively document their hoax?
The key point is Colby's ignorant and wrong insistence that the links in this diagram can't have been snooped. Even more dysfunctionally, Colby says that his unsubstantiated fantasy is proof that the people who actually pointed their antennas at the Moon and actually heard radio traffic coming down from it that matched what the rest of the world heard, are wrong. In short, he doesn't understand what proves what.
www.apollofryup.bravehost.com/The standard insults we expect from Sam Colby. He's flabbergasted that NASA would be so stupid as to tell the world that it's impossible to fly in space because of the radiation, yet claim to have flown to the Moon. Of course he doesn't think to interpret that dissonance according to the possibility that
he is the one who misunderstands. The materials to which he refers describe long-duration missions, for which the Apollo strategy won't work.
But remember, Sam Colby is the guy who didn't know which spacecraft was the command module, which the service module, and which the lunar module. He's the one who claimed the LM didn't have triangular windows.
apollolaugh.bravehost.com/1. Neil and Buzz. A made-up quote.
2. John Young. A made-up quote. Colby still believes that Tuttle faked the moon pictures, even though Tuttle himself had to put up a web site himself explaining what he had meant and repudiating Colby's interpretation. I've provided the link to Colby many, many times at his request, but he simply ignores it.
3. Armstrong. Made-up quote.
4-7. Cinder lake pictures. Made-up quotes. The Cinder Lake operation was no secret. As you can tell, lots of people were involved in making it, and lots of pictures were taken of it during construction. It's in all the NASA history books.
Prior to Apollo 11 no one was sure what the best way was to train astronauts to land a spacecraft on the moon. So NASA's approach was to try everything. They tried the big gantry crane at Langley with a funky capsule slung under it. They tried flying TV cameras over miniature landscapes. They tried the LLRV.
At Cinder Lake the theory was that by digging actual craters in actual ground and flying over them in a light plane, the astronauts could fly several different approaches and practice recognizing the landmark craters in three dimensions from different three-dimensional angles. The plaster models weren't large enough to simulate the experience entirely.
The area around Tranquility Base was duplicated roughly, but at a much smaller scale. Colby has no explanation for the smaller scale, the trees, and the tire tracks. He's fully aware of all the features that clearly disqualify Cinder Lake as the location for filming fake lunar surface footage. He just chooses to ignore it.
5. Plaster model. Colby just asserts that this was somehow used for fakery. But the creation and use of plaster models as training aids was well documented.
6. Computer. Not state-of-the-art for the 1960s, as Colby asserts. It's a Burroughs 200 series, of the off-the-shelf type NASA used routinely for various purposes, but was designed in the mid-1950s and was considerably outdated in 1969. On my site you can see pictures of state-of-the-art computers from the mid to late 1960s.
7. Donkey cart. Funny but irrelevant.
8-10. Astronaut training in early mockup. The second picture contradicts Colby's description of the first. The third is not remarkable, except as Colby has maliciously tried to attach some nefarious meaning to it.
11. Shepard in 16mm frame. Colby seems to believe the camera requires an operator. I don't know where he's getting the Muslim woman interpretation.
12. LRV loading. False comparison. There is no rule that says the deployment equipment must also function as the loading equipment. There is no rule saying it can't be hard to install something that's intended to be easy to deploy. When Boeing puts the door on an airliner it takes a gantry crane and a lifting fixture and a half-hour's work. Yet a 55 kg flight attendant can open it easily. And the LRV did not "assemble itself" as he claims.
13. Video frame. No evidence that NASA purports this image -- "Copyright NASASCAM" -- to be of an LM actually landing on the Moon. Colby does this all the time: he simply invents or fabricates photographic evidence and attributes it to NASA.
I think you might be interested 
indeed, very...No, I'm disgusted as usual. Sam Colby's site was the first I came across when I started paying close attention to these moon hoax conspiracy theories. I thought that if the sites were as rabidly hateful and stupid as his, this would be an easy task.
Sam Colby simply makes things up. And he's an idiot. And if you don't believe his egregiously made-up crap, he writes you off as a "brain-damaged" "pro-Apollo nutter." I've caught him in so many blatant lies that I simply find it best not to pay any attention to him anymore. He doesn't care at all for what's true. He simply wants to rile up good people.
Lionking, you don't take him seriously, do you?
indeed, very...
