@ Hardy: “1. You can not see ANY Apollo landing site with ANY

Comment on Apollo Moon Landing Hoax – More Photographic Proof by jfb.

@ Hardy:

“1. You can not see ANY Apollo landing site with ANY telescope. Not even Hubble can get that close. – Do some actual research before telling people to buy a telescope.”

This is true. To resolve an object the size of a LM descent stage from Earth distance, you would need a telescope with an objective on the order of 25 meters (if I’ve done the math right). It’s pretty safe to say that we’re never going to directly image the Apollo landing sites using equipment on Earth or in Earth orbit.

“2. The illumination from the surface of the moon is equal to that of common asphalt here on Earth. (do this experiment) Stand on asphalt at night with a giant spotlight far behind you (like the sun). From the front, you will be nothing but a silhouette! So the idea that Astronauts with the sun behind them are lit from the front by the moon’s surface is FALSE. Illumination Proof – DEBUNKED”

It’s not just the Moon’s surface, though; the astronauts are wearing these big white reflectors. There’s more than enough illumination provided by the reflection from the space suits to fill in shadows.

“3. Laser reflector on the moon. The Soviets put them on the moon with unmanned missions, so this is debunked too. Also, the moon’s surface itself would act as a reflector. Reflector Proof – DEBUNKED”

The lunar surface is a Lambertian reflector, and the reflected laser pulse would be too diffuse to detect from the Earth’s surface. No, there has to be a mirror of some sort on the lunar surface.

“4. Moon rocks – Again, moon rocks can be brought back with unmanned missions and have been. They say the number collected is too great, HOWEVER, I have seen a moon rock, it was encased in about 6 inches of round glass. It could have been ceramic for all I know. The FACT that not all rocks were examined by independant geologists and that NASA controls the samples given leave the question of doubt. (I’m not even getting into the Vaun Braun expedition to Antarctica) Moon Rocks Proof – DEBUNKED”

As expensive as those suckers are, they’re not going to be handed over to just anyone to examine.

“It seems the last remaining “Proofs” Pro Apollo people have can be debunked with plausible thought.

They still can explain why the rate the moon dirt falls is faster than the rate an astronaut falls (which defies Newton’s Laws of Physics which are UNIVERSAL)… Perhaps it’s because their is resistance keeping that astronaut from falling at the same rate (like wires?)”

From all the video I’ve seen, I haven’t seen anything like what you describe. Can you point me to a specific video that exhibits what you’re talking about?
