Apollo Moon Landings..Are They Real or a Myth?

Throughout history, the United States and the U.S.S.R. have been competing in what is known as the "Space Race". This all began when the Russians sent the first satellite into space in 1958 called Sputnik. Soon after, Americans did the same. The U.S. followed in the footsteps of the U.S.S.R. with sending animals into space. When they sent the first human into space, Yuriy Gagaran, it became evident that the race to the moon had begun. In 1963, President John F. Kennedy made a speech saying "We will go to the moon in this decade amongst other things, not because they are easy but because they are hard." After he was assassinated, NASA decided to pursue his plan and in 1967 the Apollo program began. In 1969, NASA landed Apollo 11 on the moon and the race was finally over. This was a major leap not only for Americans, but also for mankind. Videos and photos that were taken on the moon were shown to the public and unfortunately, it caused skepticism. There are people who feel that Apollo 11 never really landed on the moon and that it was staged in a studio. Although these "Moon Conspiracy Theorists" have convincing arguments, NASA and other scientists have proved them to be wrong to show that Apollo 11 did in fact land on the moon and that it was not the "ultimate camera trick". Moon conspiracy theorists such as Ralph Rene, David Milne, David Percy and James Collier have investigated several different aspects of the moon landing and have come up with reasons for each of why it could not have been possible. The skepticism started when Rene noticed on the videos and in the still photos (even though it is impossible to see a flag waving in a still photo) that the American flag seemed to be waving about as it was being placed into the ground on the moon. This brought him to wonder how that was possible if there was no wind or air on the moon. In response to the still photos, the conspiracy theorists can be proved wrong through the fact that the waving
