Why You Shouldn't Believe That the Moon Landing Happened

(candidate number 7060)

Have you heard of the Illuminati group? The Bermuda Triangle? How about the belief that a group of reptilians are running the government? Have you heard that some people still believe that the Earth is flat? Speaking of which, was debunked multiple times, including when on April 12th, 1961, the USSR (Russia) launched the first man into space, called Yuri Gagarin. This was a part of the Space Race against the USA, which eventually turned into a race to the moon. The race to the moon ended on July 20th, 1969, when Neil Armstrong, who was American, became the first man to land and walk on the moon. The Space Race was an event that took place during the Cold War, between Communist USSR, and Capitalist USA. But, could this landing have been faked? Of course, each country wanted to prove their dominance and undermine the other, yet would America go as far as using props, astronaut costumes and elaborate lighting, all in a studio, just to win the race? There is plenty of evidence to show that the landing may have been faked, and I'm even going to deconstruct a couple of images to show you what I mean.

Take a look at this photo. First, let's the tackle the obvious. The American flag is upright, implying that there may be some breeze holding it up. But, the moon contains no atmosphere around it, so it can't have any various types of weather, such as breeze. So, was this scene filmed in an airy studio, or outdoors? And were the directors too lazy to redo the shot?

Look at the picture again. What else can you see? I don't know about you, but the next thing I notice is that there aren't any stars in the background; it's just one black void of space. Given that the moon has no atmosphere around it, there should be a countless number of stars sprinkled across the background. Could it be that the team in control of lighting placed little lamps on a black screen to imitate the stars, but forgot to turn them on? For more proof, after the moon landing, British reporter Patrick Moore interviewed the Apollo crew, and Moore asked if the astronauts could see any stars. The crew replied by saying that they didn't recall seeing any stars, however, this contradicts the way the Apollo's navigations system functions. It was supposedly said to be using stars as a guidance tool, and the astronauts even used a star chart which was signed by Buzz Aldrin, who was one of the Apollo crew members. The inconsistency here is that the men couldn't see any stars, but used them to find the moon.

If you watch and pay close attention to the clip of the astronauts on the moon, you would notice how slow the astronauts walk. Why do you think they do that? Because people have always said that "there is less gravity on the moon than there is on Earth". And we believed it – obviously, who wouldn't trust NASA, when they claim they've been on the moon? But, there is a possibility that the illusion of weak gravity may have been created by allowing the astronauts to walk and jump around at normal speed, then slowing down the film for all the live viewers who were watching on their television at the time to see. There is even proof that this is possible, as fellow theorists have gone as far as to assemble their own set with their own wiring systems, film the scene for themselves and slow down the film in order to compare it to NASA's video.

Another thing that is easily missed are the differences in shadows.

At this point, even when the astronauts are standing close together, their shadows aren't even close to the same length, and face different directions. This could suggest that there was perhaps a flawed and imprecise lighting system was used, where there were multiple light sources shining on scene from different directions.

During the clip of the moon landing, for a moment one astronaut steps closer to the camera, and we can see right through him as if he was transparent. You might think that it's just poor camera quality, but it's actually a special type of effect called the front-screen projection. It is a process in which, within the camera, you can combine foreground footage filmed in front of a green screen with a pre-filmed background. This technique was first used in the late 1940s, so it can be assumed that the production team behind the moon landing had access to it.

To conclude, there is lots of pieces of evidence to support the theory that the moon landing was faked by NASA. Other smaller details that backup this theory is that the force of the spaceship landing on the moon didn't create any sort of disturbance on the surface of the moon, like a crater, and the boots of the astronauts in the National Air and Space Museum don't match the footprints on the moon. Though it's unlikely that we'll ever discover whether the landing was false or true, it's much safer to assume that it wasn't. The lesson you should learn here is, what the government wants you to believe, isn't always what you should believe.
