Stop telling the truth it hurts - Yes when Hubble was born Patrick Moore said - We realise our understanding of the comos is only 1% of what we thought was so - Add on that the cosmos is full of so called dark energy and dark matter some say 90% others 80% so we are still sucking our thumbs in reality

Their reactions are like those of somebody who has just heard of the death of a loved one, not of somebody who has just returned from successfully completing mans greatest triumph to date. And Im not buying 'they are just emotional' either. Its like they dont want any part of the whole mission and are acting under duress and, in Mike Collins's case, outright fear.


Let's see how you would act if you were crammed into a tin can the size of a station wagon with two hairy men, blasted into space by a rocket that could explode like a small nuke, spent a week experiencing the same nauseating feeling you get in a falling elevator and lived for that time in constant fear that the least wrong move could instantly leave you to die in the inky cold blackness of space. Oh yeah, there's no bathroom or shower. I don't know about you, but I might find all that a bit stressful.


Sure, I understand all that, but (baring in mind that they were hand picked to be able to deal with stress) all that stress is now over- theyve finished quarantine, they are home, showered and shaved, seen their loved ones, been patted on the back by all and sundry and now, the big moment, out in front of the worlds media and..........oh, I seemed to have wandered into a wake.


But hey, no, Im sure you are right, nothing strange about it at all

All the more reason to be happy and relieved that it's all over and a success right?

Sorry to just randomly pop into this discussion, but those are my thoughts exactly.
One would think they would be over-joyed to be back here on Earth and that they're alive. In the conference video, as someone previously stated, it's like they just learned someone they loved died.
I'm not them, but if I were in their position, I would be ecstatic about being back home.

How many people would have to be sworn to secrecy and then maintain that secrecy throughout the decades that followed the Lunar Landings?

The answer is: too many to count.

All of you folks that believe the U.S. faked the moon landings need to realize that those missions were monitored not only by the US but by the Russians as well.

The Soviet Union monitored the Lunar missions from launch to landing and back again. Don't you think that if the missions were faked that the Soviets would have announced it to the world?

Other countries and third party non-affiliates monitored the missions as well including Australia, New Zealand, and Spain.

Evidence of the landings were confirmed by India's Chandrayaan-1 probe as well.

Finally, posting a video with conversations between unknown people discussing how to fake the landings is hardly evidence. The audio could have been easily faked, much more easily than a moon landing....

Crazy stuff. Trying to debunk the moon landing. Some countries are so jealous that the U.S. landed there First, that they are still trying to debunk it like 40 yrs later. You're a little late, dude.

Yes- this is what I mean. Look at their expressions- Look like they are having a ball just after they arrive back on earth. Joking, laughing etc

Contrast this with the withdrawn, reserved people we see at the press conference. Just a bit strange, 'sall Im sayin'

Why? Are they practiced public speakers?

Have you seen the entire post flight interview or just the section provided by Sibrel? Do they carry the same demeanor through the entire (more than one hour) conference?

One thing I find amazing is that in 18 months NASA flew 7 manned missions.
That's like One every three months.
I think it was Three Moon landings. Three Orbits of the Moon and one Earth orbit.

That's some going considering it was just over forty years ago.

Have you ever noticed that a majority of those that don't believe we actually landed there, like myself and my near entire family, are actually from the US?

Please excuse my ignorance here. I am new to this conspiracy, but it seems like the whole argument would be easy to confirm/debunk.

In boy scouts we are taught to salute the moon if there is no flag visible because Apollo 11 planted one there. Surely we have telescopes powerful enough to see it?

Do you have a source for that statistic?
That most moon hoax believers are US citizens?

Well, I would say that by the time of this press conference, they had a good deal of experience at public speaking.

I have watched a good deal more of the press conference than the small clip provided, although not the entire hour- why, do they suddenly become happier or more animated? Buzz jumps on the table and starts dancing?

Have just looked at the other thread you sourced where the OP brings up the same question about the press conference 'tone'. Some interesting photos and comments there. They certainly look happy in most of the shots during the time they were cooped up in the trailer and the habitat on their return.

But no, Im sure you are all right- nothing remotley strange about the press conference at all.

He is a god fearing man. Thats what they say..he cant lie with hes hand on a bible. Otherwise it would have been piece of cake to put a hand on it and say:- Yes, I was there at the time. You can twist the simpliest thing in your mind all you want but it doesnt change the most obvious thing.. He could not tell a lie with hes hand on the bible!

Half a million people worked on the project, uncounted millions watched the launch. The vehicle was tracked by third party observers. The only evidence you bring to the table is repeating your opinion about the press conference over and over again. Thank you for your highly qualified professional psychological opinion.

I watched that "documentary" yesterday and found the arguments given really, really stupid.
And that woman and the music annoying.
