1. As Charlie Duke‚ an astronaut on the Apollo 16 mission said‚ “We have been to the Moon nine times. Why would we fake it nine times‚ if we faked it?" It is a pertinent question and it does seem that if you are going to tell a lie‚ it is far easier to do it once and then stop‚ than to keep exaggerating the lie over the course of the next few years. Sooner or later somebody would have made a mistake to give the game away. The fact that nobody did‚ again‚ illustrates the fact that indeed‚ these astronauts

July 20‚ 1969 and I am now completely convinced of one thing: it never happened. The Apollo Missions were an elaborate hoax to win the space race. There were photo errors (such as shadows going in different directions) and numerous film anomalies. Also‚ the astronauts were not protected by the lead needed to travel through the Van Allen radiation belt. Before my research‚ I remember looking at the photos of the Apollo 11 mission and thinking this is proof‚ I have no reason to question it. Now I look

voyage to the moon that would eventually become one of mankind’s greatest achievements. However‚ this tremendous milestone in history has raised ever growing doubt among conspiracy theorists claiming that the live broadcast provided by NASA showing Apollo 11’s lunar module landing on the moon was in fact faked. The conspiracy theory states that the landing actually occurred in an undisclosed Hollywood studio set by the United States‚ with the help of famed director Stanley Kubrick‚ in an attempt to

is nobody to prove the moon landing was staged. As a result‚ the theories that accumulated after the moon landing cannot be possible because of the scientific evidence and the fact that there were multiple moon landings closely following the first Apollo mission which means we did possess the technology; therefore the U.S. government did not lie and the country did land the first man on the

since man set foot on the moon back in 1969 the Apollo 11 moon landing was and still is regarded as one of the most important moments in human history. Not just for America‚ but for the world since it made us realize that‚ with the right technology‚ we were capable of reaching other areas far off in the universe. And that if we continue to make technological advancements the possibilities of future space travel could potentially be endless. Apollo 11 was the spaceflight that landed the first two

A starry night with a full view of the earth right in front of their eyes as Neil Alden Armstrong‚ and Edwin Eugene Aldrin stood with their feet firmly placed on the moon ground. They were the first people to ever step foot on the moon in the history of the earth‚ bringing people in complete awe all around the world. Neil Armstrong was born on August 5‚ 1930 by his parents‚ Stephen‚ and Viola Armstrong in a place called Wapakoneta‚ Ohio. He had a sister named June‚ and a brother named Dean (Armstrong

On July 20‚ 1969‚ Astronauts Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin and Neil Armstrong of Apollo 11 landed on the moon. A few years later on December 14‚ 1972‚ the astronauts of Apollo 17 became the last manned mission to the moon. It seems inconceivable that 43 years later‚ these footprints left by Apollo 17 astronauts were the last of any man. Even more disturbing is the lack of a permanent commemoration or memorial to the accomplishment of those 12 astronauts that made the perilous journey. With all of the

21st‚ 1969‚ Buzz Aldrin climbed out of Apollo 11’s lunar module and descended onto the Sea of Tranquility. Armstrong and Aldrin were alone‚ but their presence on the moon’s gray surface was the culmination of a convulsive‚ collective effort. The Apollo program was the greatest peacetime mobilization in the history of the United States. To get to the moon‚ NASA spent around 180 billion dollars in today’s money‚ or four percent of the federal budget. Apollo employed around 400‚000 people and demanded
