if NASA were able to produce fake photos, why not simply fake some "Hubble" photos or similar ?
Actually jolly good question, after all, none ogf thr HB's seem to actually know it would be impossible to do.... Oh hang on, the Experts would though.

They couldn't eat their own heads either. Was that really necessary? Did that comment contribute anything of value to the discussion? Be polite or you won't last long in this forum. |

Sorry I was making a point using humour. Some things aren't possible, the mafia stole the election for Kennedy, they couldn't get him to the moon. |

So the Mafia has skills in advanced robotics, cybernetics, not to mention stealth technology? Are all those spaghetti joints fronts for rocket bases?
You fall into the classic error here, orumdude, of confusing motive with opportunity. Unfortunately, this is a science-oriented board. As much as we might occasionally enjoy discussion of politics and personalities, this board is founded to discus what is and is not _scientifically_ plausible. For most of us here, science trumps politics. It does not matter WHO wanted to fake a Moon Landing, if they could not solve the technical issues of doing so.

You're right, they couldn't solve the technical issues

That's our claim, in a nutshell. Faking a landing is far more difficult than the actual landing would be. Lacking a good reason to chose the former, and any evidence at all supporting the former, only the latter is logical.

1. I'm a subject-matter expert, therefore I'm qualified to claim that it was a hoax.
2. All the subject-matter experts are paid tools of TPTB; none of them can be trusted.
I think this contradiction gets overlooked because the first premise is so trivially debunked.

From the german Hoaxer Gernot Geise:
1. The Astronauts couldn't survive the radiaton
2. The Astronauts took pictures of alien buildings

From Eric Hufschmid:
1. They couldn't have done it, it was all untested.
2. Look at all these pictures of test equipment, obviously props for a hoax.

Apologies if this has been mentioned, I didn't want to wade through 7 pages to check. 1) The Astronaut's suits should have been too stiff to bend very much and hard to move in. 2) Why were n't they jumping 10 feet off the ground? very late edit for Mr G. |

I was browsing second hand books over the weekend, when I found a book discussing space and space exploration, published in about 1965. There were detailed pictures of all the Apollo-Saturn hardware (the LM looking somewhat different to the final product).
But the one most interesting picture was an artist's illustration of an astronaut on the Moon in a very flexible space suit leaping 10 feet off the ground while connected to his fellow astronaut by a tether. The picture's caption pointed out what would be possible on the Moon.
Of course, as I say, the astronaut was wearing what looked like a very flexible and soft space suit - to the extent that I don't think it was actually a practical garment - and he had no form of backpack, so I don't know what the artist thought the astronaut would be breathing.
