Let me start by saying I believe in conspiracy theories but I think that the ones offered by the American government and the Apollo hoax debunkers are without merit, without credibility and are self serving fairy tales consisting of outright lies. The moon is on average 238,857 miles away from earth and I do not believe America landed on it or even orbited it. I did believe in the landings until 1998 when I began viewing the pictures, video clips and audio recordings on NASA's site. I believe the following issues will prove the landings were hoaxed.
1- The batteries were not capable of lasting as long as they did on the rover and in the lander in the temperatures/heat/cold that they were exposed to.
2- The zippered spacesuits never leaked and were somehow pressurized in the lander before each moon walk.
3- There are several pictures showing strange and impossible light angles/reflections and footprints and lack of tire tracks from the rover that make no sense.
4- Given the hot/cold temperatures in space the film in the cameras should've melted or froze.
5- The re-entry angle exposed the lower side of the capsule to explosive heat but never exploded.
6- The descent speed to splashdown after re-entry makes no sense.
7- The deployment timeline of the chutes makes no sense.
8-
I believe that NASA truly wanted to go to the moon but discovered that it was impossible to do so Richard Nixon hoaxed the landings. I do not believe the astronauts were even in the rockets that lifted off. I believe the rockets crashed in the ocean or went into deep space but without the astronauts on board. I believe the moon rocks come from various places on earth. I believe the capsule was dropped from a plane and filmed on splashdown. I believe Michael Jackson was the first man to do a moon walk and not Neil Armstrong.
1- The batteries.
On Apollo 17 the astronauts allegedly spent 75 hours on the moon. The batteries on the rover were installed on earth days if not weeks before lift off. The rover was stowed inside the unheated lunar lander and the lander was stowed inside the unheated section of the rocket that was moved to the launch site days or weeks before lift off.
There is no evidence that the batteries were changed while on the moon or even charged up.
www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/a17/a17j.htmlPower was supplied by 2 silver-zinc batteries, each 36v, 121 amp-hours per battery, encased in magnesium, then enclosed by thermal blankets and dust covers. The batteries were designed to last up to 5 days and/or travel a maximum distance of 50 kms under normal level terrain use. Cost of the rover in 1970-72 was 38 million $. Ha! They built 4 of them for a total scam cost of 152 million $.
nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/apollo_lrv.htmlwww.asi.org/adb/06/09/03/02/090/apollo-rover.htmlApollo 17 launched on December 7, 1972. It landed in a valley on the moon on December 11. The astronauts made three moon walks for a total of 22 hours 3 minutes and 57 seconds. They travelled 35.9 kms of the maximum 50 kms available in the rover. The rover was last used on December 14 -- two days after the 5-day battery life cycle had already expired.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_17It is simply impossible for the batteries to have lasted this long as it is well beyond the 5-day life cycle of the batteries, and in particular, considering that the batteries were installed long before lift off on December 7. The batteries ran four 1/4 hp motors, one for each wheel, a colour TV camera, 500 mm camera colour TV, 16 mm camera and a moon drill.
The batteries were also subject to the elements on the moon, namely, temperatures of 250 degree below F and 250 degree above F. 250 degrees above F is well beyond the boiling point. As noted, the rover was stowed in the unheated lander which was stowed in the unheated rocket during travel time. The rover was parked outside the lander for the entire duration of the mission. These temperatures would aid in the draining of the batteries, despite not being in use at the time, and despite being encased in magnesium, then enclosed by thermal blankets and dust covers. The battery radiators were kept closed during activities and opened manually by astronauts after parking for the night. Therefore, out of the 75 hours on the moon the battery radiators were open for over 52 and one half hours.
The lunar lander was also powered by batteries. This included providing over 75 non stop hours of heating, cooling, running all operating systems, instrument panals, radar, navigation systems, deploying the unfolding landing gear and pressurizing two astronauts spacesuits three times each. These batteries were also installed days or weeks before lift off. They were also located in the unheated area of the lander and rocket and subject to the -250 beow F temperature during travel time. Powering the lander required a larger power source than the rover. The lander consisted of two stages, the ascent and descent modules. The ascent stage was powered by 4 x 400 A-h silver zince batteries. The ascent batteries were not used until lift off from the moon, thus, December 15, weeks after being charged and installed, and 8 days after lift off and being exposed to these extreme temperatures. The battery location is on the ladder side of the lunar module. The diameter of the descent module was 13.8 feet with a height of 10.5 feet. There is a thermal shield between the ascent and descent modules, which contains the intense heat from the engine thrusters to the descent module. The descent stage was powered by 2 x 296 A-h silver zince batteries. The batteries are located right next to the the landing thuster engine that was producing 3000 to 10,000 pounds of thust at various times and some 2600 to 4000 degree heat from the time the lander undocked from the service module until it landed on the moon 2 hours 34 minutes and 1 second later.
Clearly this intense heat (which would melt rock -- volcanos produce this type of temperature heat) would have completely drained if not destroyed the batteries -- but not if your NASA.
And, oddly enough, the two 296 A-h descent module batteries, which supplied all of the power from the point of undocking, to landing 2 hours 34 minutes and 1 second later and during the entire 75 hours on the moon -- for a total of 77 hours and 34 minutes, were smaller batteries than the four 400 A-h batteries in the ascent module, which were only used after the lift off from the moon until docking with the service module, a total of 2 hours and 16 minutes.
The Descent Stage also has approximately 5 major electrical harnesses and 45 electrical cable assemblies located in it and amazingly none of them melted from the 2600 to 4000 degree heat.

Five silver/zinc-oxide batteries provided power after the CM and SM detached, three for re-entry and after landing and two for vehicle separation and parachute deployment.
