By the way, if you are so sure of your 'truth' and 'Hard Evidence' why don't you go and visit the Kennedy Space Centre in Florida, there you can compare the stuff NASA has and even get to ask a Astronaut about it, they have one everyday at 10.00 and 15.00. I met Eugene Cernan, the last man to walk on the moon, there and it was one of life honours to shake hands with him. I am sure they will listen you your arguments you put forth and offer some of their own.

I was not overwhelmed by George Formby - hero worship is not my scene:rolleyes:

(post #58 Well - I shook hands with George Formby and I still can't play a ukulele)

Okay, no hard feelings Margaret, the moon landings and space exploration is a passion of mine, I suppose by being a Pilot I can nearly reach that.

Till next time......with good humour I hope, Take care

too young for George Formby, more of a Pink Floyd type:mosher::D:D

It seems that us 'doubters' have some eminent company

From - My Life by Bill Clinton published in 2004

(he was describing a conversation he had with a carpenter aged 77 in Hot Springs)
page 186-
"Just a month before, Apollo II astronauts Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong had left their colleague, Michael Collins, aboard spaceship Columbia and walked on the moon, beating by five months President Kennedy's goal of putting a man on the moon before the decade was out. The old carpenter asked me if I really believed it had happened. I said sure. I saw it on television. He disagreed, he said that he didn't believe it for a minute, that "them television fellars"could make things look real that weren't. Back then, I thought he was a crank. During my eight years in Washington, I saw some things on TV that made me wonder if he wasn't ahead of his time" (my emphasis)

...was that a hint of his doubts, or wasn't it?

What if they went to the moon and faked some of the photos to make them look better than what they were as the camera's they had wouldn't take the photos that they came down with?

:egged: Cracked?
