Sorry to break the news to you but the government does lie

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

Sorry to break the news to you but the government does lie to us.

I’m sure they do, but how does that prove Apollo was a hoax? Just because someone lied about one thing doesn’t mean that EVERYTHING they say is a lie. If your parents lied to you about Santa Claus does that mean that everything they ever told you was a lie? No, of course not.

they lied about WMD in Iraq,the gulf of tonkin,etc..

Which is totally irrelevant to whether or not they lied about Apollo. If you want to accuse NASA of lying about the Moon landings you have to prove it with evidence related to Apollo.

considering that there wasnt an extroadinary loss of life with the apollo missions,this lie was fairly minor when put on the grand scale of govt lies..

The Apollo program cost billions of dollars. IF it was a hoax then I consider that to be pretty major. I therefore don’t take accusations against NASA and the US government lightly.

first the flag waving.the flag waves without the astronauts touching it

What other possibilities have you considered before jumping to the conclusion that the entire Apollo program was a hoax? It could be vibrations from the astronauts jumping around that moved the flag pole and disturbed the flag. Or it could be kicked up Moon dust hitting the flag. Or it could be static electricity between the astronauts and the flag. The point is that it could be something you haven’t considered… but instead you jump immediately to the belief that the whole thing is a hoax.

the dust went up when the rover drove thru it,

Yes… and in a way that could only happen in an airless environment like the Moon. The dust kicked up by the rover follows a ballistic path (an arc) because there is no air to cause it to billow like dust does on Earth. Drive down a dusty dirt road to see what I mean.

but there are numerous photos with the rover and no tracks behind it!

This argument is actually pretty funny. Do you really think it makes sense? Why would they move a wheeled vehicle around by lifting it with a crane if they could just drive or push it to where they wanted it?

Doesn’t it make more sense that the tire tracks were disturbed by the astronauts walking around, or that they simply weren’t visible from the angle that the photograph was taken from?

how can the rover make (and not make) tracks, but the LEM left no sign of anything kicking up!

I suggest you watch the Apollo 11 landing again. As they approach the surface you can clear see dust being disturbed by the rocket engine. Buzz Aldrin even says “we’re kicking up some dust”.

lastly the laser refractors, the soviets managed to put them up as well with unmanned vehicles.

Yes, but don’t you think it would be pretty stupid to tell the entire world exactly (with laser precision) where they landed if they didn’t really go to the Moon?

Eventually someone else in the future will go to the Moon and one of the first places they will go is the Apollo 11 landing site. If the landings were faked there will be nothing there to see… so it would make no sense at all for NASA to give us the precise location of the landing sites if they are lying.

THINK before you speak.
