Slightly off topic... I don't consider myself a conspiracy theorist but in my opinion the demeanor of Armstrong and crew during the Apollo 11 press conference

Slightly off topic... I don't consider myself a conspiracy theorist but in my opinion the demeanor of Armstrong and crew during the Apollo 11 press conference is indicative of deception. Have a look: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RcKLAo62Ro http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RcKLAo62Ro

"I don't consider myself a conspiracy theorist..." Do conspiracy theorists ever?

  Fair enough. To clarify, I don't subscribe to really any of the doctrine or ideas presented by the conspiracy "mainstream." I do believe American astronauts have walked on the moon during six individual Apollo missions. I also believe in the instance I referenced previously, that those three men are lying about something.

    I watched it, and see no deception, just nervousness mixed with formality. Also a little regret knowing they will never go back.

      "Also a little regret knowing they will never go back." Wow, I had never thought of that aspect of the Apollo program. It's a little sad that of the 22 people to orbit the moon, land on the moon, or both, it appears just four of them ever made a subsequent space flight.

        I think they had an informal policy of letting as many different people as possible experience space. So you trained for years to go just once. Not the best use of money, but I can easily understand why.

        From Buzz Aldrin's bio on wiki: "In March 1972, Aldrin retired from active duty after 21 years of service, and returned to the Air Force in a managerial role, but his career was blighted by personal problems. His autobiographies Return To Earth, published in 1973, and Magnificent Desolation, published in June 2009, both provide accounts of his struggles with clinical depression and alcoholism in the years following his NASA career."

      or maybe they were just fresh out the steel capsule they had to live 40 days

"in my opinion the demeanor of Armstrong and crew during the Apollo 11 press conference is indicative of deception" Well that was scientific. Do you think it would stand up in court?

  No. Notice I added a caveat that my statement was opined based on what I believe is true regarding human interaction. I could be off.

    It could be off, but it is a worthless non-scientific statement that is terribly off-topic to boot.

If you must conclude that every public speaker who is visibly nervous and unpolished is a liar, you should avoid tech conferences.
