@plug007 No doubt the Chinese will send men to the moon in the next ten years. I am retired after nearly 40 years in aerospace and had the good fortune to meet Apollo and shuttle astronauts over the years; many of them got sweet jobs in aerospace. These guys are intelligent and accomplished, yet humble and reserved. Since you are only in your twenties, no doubt you should at least be able to get a ride into orbit by one one of the many space tourism ventures now in development. Good luck!

@charliegoodboy Hehe, I just laugh at the hoaxers as I think they are nuts. Im in my early twenties now, I always hope that they will put man on Mars and back to the moon in my lifetime. I would think the Chinese will go to the moon in 2020 maybe. Hopefully anyway. Peace out.

@plug007 Well, said. Many hoaxers are young people who have only video and photos as their "total proof." The program was real, the launches were witnessed by millions; nothing that heavy has been launched by the US since then, the shuttle stack-up weighed 2 million pounds less! The science was examined by thousands of scientists and college professors around the world. Some unqualified nuts say it looks fake; they cite "total proof of a hoax," which makes those of us who know better laugh.

what a suprise idiots are arguing in the comments page . . .

@looncraz Yet again, cite your source.

@CubesForAKid I've been nice enough: fuck off. I have a business to run.
-
@looncraz Cite your source.
-
@CubesForAKid Meh, I have bigger fish to fry than showing just how disorganized NASA was when storing their tapes ( I mean they lost the Apollo tapes, how disorganized must they be?? ).
-
@looncraz Dude, cite your sources. None of what you say has any merit until your cite a source.
-
@CubesForAKid That would be a very time consuming process - though I thought about organizing the data at one point to try and show what actually happened.
There are times when the lighting in the photos does not match the videos, the framing is incorrect, and in one instance the flag was turned the wrong way.
There are also videos listed as official moon shots in which you can hear the astronauts talking about what is going on outside with bomb tests and what-not. Obviously training footage.
Nearly 1/2 million people involved in putting man on the moon, if it was faked I think it would be leaked by now. We put man on the moon, the single greatest achievement ever!

How can anyone in the year 2009 believe the moon landings were faked? Have they seen the footage? I'm sorry, but you couldn't have footage like that today that would look so real...and that was 1969!! It's so obvious it's real...anyone seen 2001, A Space Odyesey? That's the height of spfx technology from that era..and for some of the shots, it's a cut-out being filmed...and the models are clearly models...we landed on the moon, folks...a number of times...it's common sense.
