Were the moon landings fake?


Recommended Posts

The Chinese are planning their moon landing sometime in the not very far distant future. When they land and see the US flag in place some of you conspiracy nuts are going to look pretty stupid

 

For the benefit of the poster who remarked that it must be fake because the flag looks as though it's fluttering in a breeze :hihi: the flag in fact was manufactured to look like that.

 

It would have been pretty dumb to have left a cloth flag just hanging down on the pole wouldn't it ? Duh !

As I recall a coathanger wire along the top was the preferred option...

 

You dont need the Chinese though. You can see the landing sites from low orbit satellites. You can bounce the lasers off the reflectometers. You can actually go and look at the moonrock...

 

But all conspiracy nuts are intellectually blinded and its never going to convince them. It;s more fun to prod them and watch them jump...

I was only joking about Scarborough Beach. I didn't know it was really like that :o :o Must x it off my places to visit bucket list :D You've been there yourself I take it ?

 

I prefer our Zuma Beach up near Malibu. Naked girl sightings. But that's just me....always was a bit of a non conformist :D

Nah, I don't believe that.... there's video's of the training that look very similar (even low grav training)

 

it could have been faked, not saying it was..... I should have clarified in my post above, i'm not saying that's what I believe, but it's one scenario that MAY have happened which has caused all this shouting 'it's fake'...

 

The flag waving for example, no it wouldn't droop because there's no gravity, but it wouldn't have waved as though it was being blown, it would have been more like a pliable rubber or something...

 

Of course there's gravity... It's the moon, not orbit.

Minor point - yes it would have drooped (unless there was a horizontal support across the top edge). There is gravity on the moon. OK, the force is much less than it is on earth, but there is still a force, so an unsupported flag would still droop.
