Them wizards have to take a break from creating random monsters. And after all, they're used to creating random and elaborate underground spaces already.
I got a better way to use an underground lake. Make a cavern below a natural underground lake of mercury. Or maybe below an enormous lead deposit. See, the idea is to be below a mascon that partially counteracts the gravitational attraction from the Earth. I figure a small moon, supported on stilts just out of camera range, would work nicely. Might be tough to camouflage, tho.

This is my favorite hoax idea ever. it isn't my favorite conspiracy theory, that 'honour' goes to Alexi Leninovs alleged Apollo 20 moon mission. But for sheer bogosity, this not only takes the cake, it eats it and asks for more. Jarrah White, if thou art in lurkage, make a video on this. I need a good laugh, and this would about do me for a year.

C'mon guys, haven't you seen the Core? It's totally plausible.

Would that be tunneling rats and snakes?

Turning it on its head, how high would you have to go? Oh, about a quarter-million miles would probably do. Well, the inverse square law applies, right? So 6,371 km (mean earth radius) times the square root of 6 and you get... 15,606 km, if my math is - Oooooh, I see what you did there.

I like the idea that it was filled in a huge cave deep in the bowels of the Earth.
Sure explains the lack of stars.

But it makes the A16 ultraviolet photos somewhat suspect.

If you subscribe to the Earth/moon impact theory, it would be safe to assume that deep inside the earth is a part of the moon. A cavern with all the moon rocks you would ever want.

Even if this were true - and I'm in NO WAY suggesting that it is - and the rocks that were "brought back from the Moon" were really from this supposed underground cave or whatever, how would you explain that ALL the rock samples show characteristics that can ONLY be explained by prolonged exposure to a vacuum environment, plus exposure to solar and cosmic radiation that our atmosphere (and in the case of an underground cave, THE EARTH itself) would limit or completely block?

This magic cavern looks pretty cool. Maybe this is where rocky's magic sand came from too? It seems to be a worthy destination for exploration. It's a shame really to use it only as a stage for a fake moon mission.
