I believe it is real, but I do remember seeing a documentary that they actually filmed it incase the transmission broke down as it was never tested before, but they never used it because of Neil Armstrong famous speech

I have a certificate & a badge from when it happened , we got them through a newspaper in Adelaide in Australia, I still cherish them & wanted to be an astronaut because of them.

I do wish that this conspiracy theory would go away because so many people worked hard for it to succeed

Faking it would have been quite an achievement,

possibly more so than actually landing on the moon.

They must have been faking these experiments also then for the past 40 yrs.doh

"An experiment, begun when Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin left a mirror on the lunar surface 40 years ago to allow Earth-based astronomers to fire lasers at it, has been ended by American science chiefs."

I think everyone should go visit the Kennedy Space Center in Florida and see the historical items on display from the Moon Program. You could make up your own mind as to whether or not these items could have accomplished the moon landing.

As for me; I worked in the aerospace business my entire life until I retired a few years ago. I was lucky enough to work on the new replacement for the space shuttle. I worked with and along side many outstanding, intelligent and forward looking men and women.

There is no doubt in my mind that we went to the moon and landing on it back in 1969. Technology builds on early accomplishments. Today we are able to do what we do because these superior humans did what they did.

But it orginally happened because the U.S was playing one upmanship with the Russians during the cold war, Surley now they even more reason or even better reasons to go there now than ever before? such as to further scientific research....

I think it boils down to:

What would be the purpose for the mission?

Who is willing to pay the huge amounts of money to do it?

Is the money better spent on something else?

Do you want your limited technical talent working on this mission rather than something else?

They have made a date to go back to the moon in 2018.. the reason why its 9 years away is because they plan to stay there alot longer then a few hours... nasa want to make the moon a lunch site to explore the universe better...

What is the purpose of sending a probe to Mars?

Whoever sent the probe to mars has got bundles of the stuff...

Obviously not...

Apparently it already is....

mabe its only now that they belive they have the technology to put a launch pad on the moon.. why would they waste time and spend millions to go back the moon and bring down rocks and dust that thay already have...??? the mission in 2018 is to see if humans can live on the moon wich is a bigger chanllenge then walking on the moon for a few hours so naturally its going to take along time...

See the new NASA manned launch rocket.....Constellation.
2012-2015 date for launching. It has a lunar mission abilities that are being planned.

Here is my opinion to why a revisit has taken so long.

Cost and limited lift abilities. Even with the NASA Space Shuttle, the cost per pound of cargo lifted is still high. With the Space Station, Hubble, Satellie fleet to deploy, the Shuttle program could only lift so much.

Also with the two Shuttle accidents, further reduced the launch numbers and pounds that NASA could lift. So?

A program needed to be cut. It was the lunar program.

Now thats an answer you can bank on!!!thumbs up

Anyway, im tired of playing devils advocate and am going to bed now, and whilst i believe that it did happen maybe tomorrow i'll go in to bat for the nay sayers again... but in the meantime i'll leave you with this thought.....
