Apollo "Hoax" vs Facts...

NASA

"In the late 1960s and early 1970s, NASA launched the Apollo missions to the moon that ultimately landed 12 astronauts on the lunar surface in a series of historic missions. Or did they?

Actually, yes, NASA did. But that hasn't stopped conspiracy theorists from maintaining that humans never set foot on the lunar surface, and that the entire effort was massively staged event for the world to see.

"Take a look at some of the wildest Apollo moon hoax claims, and the real science that debunks them."

I've discussed this before with a coworker young enough to having not been on the planet in 1969 and his supposed "proof" (an un-juried You Tube video); my cartoons were preempted to view the first moon landing. I recall that quite vividly. After getting over the interruption of "Tom and Jerry," it was a remarkable, suitable substitute!

So, I disqualify anyone that bases their doubt on "Conspiracy Theory" videos someone uploaded to You Tube from their laptop.
