Did we go to the Moon? New footage shows perhaps otherwise.

[Paul Lake's Left Knee]

I don't believe it at all.

I've seen a documentary about another US space mission that nearly went tits up called Capricorn One. Open your eyes lads it's bollocks.

Wow.
Do you always talk like your the only person in the world who is always right and everyone else is just plain stupid, in that mark lawrenson kind of manner?

Clarkie?? Has to be...

If we did go to the moon,Why have we not been since?

Because there is nothing else there. It's too easy. Robots on Mars next..

The following links pretty much deal with all the pseudo-scientific claptrap that the conspiracy junkies come up with;

<a class="postlink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third-party_evidence_for_Apollo_Moon_landings" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third-part ... n_landings</a>

<a class="postlink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_landing_conspiracy_theories" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_landi ... y_theories</a>

One of them has a local (to Manchester) link; Jodrell Bank.
If you know anything about science you would realise that samples of moon rock picked up by each of the Apollo missions were sent to universities around the world. They match in date (older than any Earth rock) and isotopic composition those returned by the Soviets. A sample return robotic mission was incapable of returning the quantity that the Apollo missions returned.
NASA has recently issued photos of the landing sites as well. Risky to fake them given that the Japanese, Europeans, Russians and Chinese could easily disprove them quite soon.
Still, some people believe god created the Earth in the last 10 000 years!

Back in my conspiracy theory days, I used to believe that our government was routinely intercepting and hacking into everyone's phone calls, letters and emails; that politicians, the police and the press all worked together to subvert the cover each others' backs and subvert the news; that there were lots of high profile people in paedophile rings; that merchant bankers rigged the financial markets for their own ends and that the government was holding secret talks with the IRA.

Glad I don't buy conspiracy theories any more.

Zing.

All those that think it's not faked, answer me this. Why has nobody ever gone back ? Surely any new space exploring country would like to test their wares with this mission. They know it's possible.

I'll bite. What's the point? That's why. We know all we need to about the moon. Why waste resources covering old ground? We should be trying to get to the moons of Saturn and Jupiter, imho. Far more interesting.
