Who panned the camera?

His name was Ed Fendell, a controller in Houston in charge the remotely-controlled camera on the LRV.

Yes, he had to take the signal delay into account – he had to anticipate the liftoff and rate of ascent. …

Did you know that many of the people involved in the moon landing died from a car crash?

Upwards of 90 people die *every day* in car crashes in the US; it’s not at all surprising that a lot people “involved …


Apollo Moon Landing Hoax – More Photographic Proof

Some futher googling indicates that the original Saturn V plans are stored at MSFC in Huntsville, AL (which would make sense); however, the source I found isn’t authoritative (it’s a forum discussion with no links), so don’t take that as …

Paper copies were destroyed because storage costs money; many (not all) documents were saved to microfilm for long-term storage. Some of these documents are available online, such as:

That’s far from a complete list; I’m sure there …


Apollo Moon Landing Hoax – More Photographic Proof

Even one picture of the stars while the ship was on the way to or circling the moon.

I’ve explained this before, multiple times. You simply cannot expose for the sunlit surface of the Moon and the stars at the …

Apollo Moon Landing Hoax

It doesn’t have to be pretty to work.

The foil acted as a thermal blanket, reflecting as much of the sunlight as possible to keep the base of the LM from overheating. The foil was only about 125 microns thick, …


Apollo Moon Landing Hoax – Scientific Evidence

The blueprints *weren’t* destroyed; they’re on file at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, AL. Not that it matters; we couldn’t build the Saturn V today if we wanted to, because most of the technology it used is …

Apollo Moon Landing Hoax – Camera Problems

It’s not a C, it’s an O.

And it *looks* like some kind of inclusion (a pebble embedded in a slightly softer matrix rock). It looks like the surrounding matrix has eroded a bit, leaving a small channel around the …
