Did the Moon-men have a sense of humour?

You think we went to the moon in the 60's using a computer that had the power of a zx81 ? :)

How much computing power do you think you need onboard a spacecraft?

Apart from the amazing pictures they managed to take on a crappy camera what evidence is there ?

LOL at a Hasselblad 500 EL being described as a "crappy camera" :D

Aaaaaaaaaaaanyway - photos, audio recordings, TV broadcasts, telemetry recordings, transcripts, physical hardware, rocks and dust samples, photos from the LRO showing the landing sites and the hardware and foot/rover tracks left behind....how much evidence do you need?

Seemingly not. According to consensus you have to believe everything or nothing at all. Like I said earlier some people on here will believe WMDs are in Iraq.

Don't make out we where being overly inquisitive or close minded. No offence dude, but your provided nothing at all for us to believe you where ever providing true evidence for your argument. You can't just spout anecdotes, especially when you've been asked for a source to corroborate your point. Multiple times I might add.

Meh true enough. Hamburg went and got some of the pics as per his link. I've told peeps to look on YT at the vids which offer more compelling stuff.
 
According to the latest documentary I saw you're all wrong, its proven the Apollo mission did indeed go there and it was to retrieve some Transformer alien tech. Think it directed by some Michael bay chap .....
 
Well, I dunno. Maybe tell me that the debunking is wrong and explain why? I mean, it seems pretty clear cut to me but then I'm approaching it from the position of someone who doesn't believe in any of the conspiracies surrounding Apollo so I could well be biased.

Well your minds made up then isn't it.

Some of the pics there are not reflected by the footage captured. The footage is quite clearly distorted in some way. Unless you are of course advocating every single one of 5,000+ pictures faced no alterations?

I've seen plenty of hoax busting things. But why claim they were near the moon but were not?

I'm curious Roah, you stated back on page one that although you don't dispute the moon landings themselves, you doubt the authenticity of some of the pictures. Problem is in looking at the vids for "more compelling stuff", as you suggest, we run into our old chum Bart Sibrel (the subject of the C5 documentary that started this thread). Sibrel clearly believes that the 'trick earth' shot proves his case that the entire Apollo program was faked. It is, for him, "the smoking gun". Why do you draw a different conclusion?

I'm 'advocating' nothing of the sort. I'm simply trying to work out (with minimal information to go on) exactly what you're trying to say was faked.

Well quite. Why would they claim that they were near the Moon when they were still in low Earth orbit? Since we know that they did actually get as far as the Moon (and indeed, know that NASA was able to go that far as early as Christmas '68 when Apollo 8 did 10 laps), it doesn't seem incredibly likely that they'd fake where they were.


***edit***

And if you're seriously basing the fakery theory on anything Bart Sibrel has to say, then I'm utterly wasting my time here. Because the footage Sibrel has held up as evidence in the past was of the astronauts practising for TV broadcasts later in the flight.

i haven't quoted the wrong image at all.

hopefully next year there will be close up footage and photos as well, if any of the lunar Xprise teams pull it off.

Because I believe we did land on the moon. The evidence is pretty solid we did. Russia would have been all over it as would likely the Chinese. Do I have doubts mmm not so much, more curiosity why we haven't been there in nearing 50yrs despite technology being far greater now.

The shots of earth from earth orbit. If they made a mistake when filming and said "oh no we were actually still close by then" fair enough. But they claim to be near the moon.

It doesn't, but does it not sit uncomfortably with you. Lets remember this was a multi-billion dollar exercise and they definitely used filming techniques akin to cinema (and no.... I'm nit saying it was fake and shot in a studio). They had equipment set on timers, positions and angles pre-set.

Its not beyond the realms of rational that ***** were done to save time.

we have no idea what image you are talking about as you haven't reference it.

Well look at post #97... That's not a light haze around the bottom of the earth... Its part of the porthole.

Nice edit with the trolling remark.
