Neil Armstrong and his Moon - Did he or didn't he? - 07-05-2006, 07:27 AM

This has probably been one of the most controversial topics in the history of this planet. Did he actually land on the moon?

Experts over the year have come up with numerous examples and anomalies in the photographs to prove that he didn't. That all he did was jump around in a NASA lab and made a fool of himself in the process.

NASA and the US have of course vehemently denied it all these years.

I'll briefly list down some of the errors in the pics that have been noticed.

1. The flapping flag. No air on the moon. How could if flap?
2. The famed footprint. Considering the feeble gravitational pull on the moon, a footprint would be almost impossible. Unless they'd taken an elephant along.
3. The absence of a crator beneath the Lunar Vehicle.
4. The difference in the size of the two men's (Armstrong & Aldrin) shadows.

There're of course other points worth discussing, but we can go into them as the thread progresses. (If it does!!!!)

What's your take on it?

There's an excellent documentary titled as "Moon Landing Hoax" which covers all the above points and many more. However, NASA has given befitting counter arguements to each point of accusation. For a complete list check out

Wel i think that Americans have blurred this whole NASA episode and it was nothing like Neil Armstrong was sent on moon...the pics very clearly shows it and stands for evidence ..wel its wat i think because Americans have sort out these issues also...
Wel after all its SUPER POWER!!!!!!

Well now...here's one Uncle Sam basher for sure!

I do agree that there're more pressing needs to be fulfilled on this planet than, maybe finding water on other celestial bodies, or finding other celestial bodies, for that matter...but then, everything has its need and importance.

In a similar vein, you could probably argue that we shouldn't be pumping so much money into sports and world cups and such other stuff. The world doesn't actually need those either, does it?

We cannot blame poverty and the lack of food/clothing of millions of people to the projects done by the US and NASA, can we? Because, that then, defeats the entire purpose and meaning of progress.

Yes, the NASA has been accused of a hoax. But then, who were the ones to initiate it? The Russians...and we all know to what lengths each side went in those Cold War years!
And I'd suggest all of you to have a look at the link that has been suggested in msg no. 2 of this thread. At least read out what NASA had to say in defence!
