Mythbusters on the moon landing fraud

**Volcon** · 09-07-2008 08:08 PM

Did anyone else watch this? The mythbusters tested many of the things that conspiracy theorists say are fraud about the moon landing. Every one of them they tested they proved was real, i found it very interesting. Here is a quick read on it.

I saw it. I thought that most of it was real, but maybe they pushed a few thiings to make it look like it was really done. Like the photos. Those were fake for sure.

Name one fake thing about the photos.

I just think maybe they hoaxed those results, I may be wrong.

Who are you talking about? NASA or Mythbusters? Are you saying NASA's moon photos were faked?

I think that the photos were hoaxed by NASA and the results taying that they were not hoaxes were hoaxed by the MythBusters

So? The moon-landing wasn't fake, they even left a mirror on the moon. But I guess a huge, 40-year-lasting hoax is way more easy to pull off, and cooler to talk about wearing your tin-foil-hats.

Who is to say they didn't just say they got a reflection?

Yeah, they left a mirror up there. What do you mean, 'just say they got a reflection'? Anybody can confirm it if they're genuinely bothered. Which they're not.

If you have a sufficiently powerful laser and telescope, you can very easily test this. Just look up the location of the reflector on Google Moon or whatever.

And you still haven't answered my question.

I do not think that craters can alter the shaddows os the astronaunt or the rocks as much as is shown, and the moon's surface is not reflectione enough to luminate the astronanunt as much as he was.

**Xei** · 09-08-2008 07:16 PM

Riiiiight.

Now the explanation for how the mirror got on the moon.
