In that case, the Indians and Chinese are completely full of it. They have their own satellites orbiting the moon and have surveyed the six landing sites. Even if it were possible for the U.S. to keep a hoax under wrap, wouldn't another country like to blow the hoax wide open?
- TrevorJ 17y agoUnless of course, they are lying as well in order to have bragging rights of their own. ;) I don't buy into any of the moon-landing hoax theories. I just don't see the evidence for them, and I think they do a disservice to the brave men who went to the moon. Having said that, in the cold-war era, I can absolutely understand how some people would question this as reality. Given the understanding of technology and the geopolitical landscape during those years, its no wonder that the moon landing was scrutinized by skeptics.
- BrentRitterbeck 17y agoWell, then, hell. We've got enough smart people here on HN. Let's send someone up there for a look. :) EDIT: I nominate pg for commander. He could then write an essay from the surface.
- huhtenberg 17y agoConsider this - if they in fact did NOT find the lander where it was supposed to be, that would be a huge bargaining chip in talking to Americans on virtually any subject. I.e. they would keep it under the wraps at all costs. Rebutt this :)
- BrentRitterbeck 17y agoTouche'! You do realize that you have now given the crazies another argument to support their theories?
- tybris 17y agoThe absence of evidence theory never fails.
