Did you miss the shot we took of the spot where we stuck the American flag? Or someone's flag...not sure which. I believe a satellite or a probe managed to catch a very good pic of a flag on the moon. You missed it?
I suppose you did. Well, this one is from the 31st of July, 2012. Here you go:

the US flag at the landing site on the moon?. Why not go back to the moon, much cheaper alternative to mars, and take super close up pics of the landing site and flag now, it`s almost as if the good ole US of A is saying "ok folks we went the moon,forget about it, heres some grainy sihtty images of it which are very dubious but heres ur front garden in high definition on google earth and heres some excellent pictures of a rock on mars??? bit suss to me.
Moon
We’ve already been there.
We have already sampled the surface composition.
We know there are no life-forms.
It does not nor will never have an atmosphere that could support life.
Mars
Similar to earth.
We have not yet fully sampled the composition of the surface.
It has an atmosphere which has/had the possibility to support life.
With some ingenuity on our part it has a possibility to support future human life.
FYI fenian8 - All the really close up images for Google Earth are taken by airplane and car not by satellite imagery.

If you read my earlier post i think we probably did go to the moon, but i find it very strange that we just visited it a few times came out with "evidence" that says it cannot nor ever has supported life and its just a dead planet so next off to mars which can or could sustain life even if it hasn`t its scientifically proven that with a few bits of our advanced scientific input could definately support life, seems strange thats all, as the OP stated with all this mass of scientific knowledge we posess and technical ability surely it would be easier, (and make more sense) to explore the moon a heck of a lot more first and proove we landed there, we still don`t know everything about our own planet yet but after a few short stops on the moon we know everything about it hmmmmmmm

Galactic Suite Signs Contract with Chinese Launcher to Send Rover to the Moon Barcelona, Spain
(August 08, 2012) — The Barcelona-based company, Galactic Suite, leading the industrial conglomerate, Barcelona Moon Team, announced it has signed a launch service contract for a Chinese rocket that will carry the Spanish robot to the Moon in 2014 to attempt to win the $30 million Google Lunar X PRIZE.
The Google Lunar X PRIZE, the largest incentivized competition offered to date, challenges space professionals and engineers from across the globe to build and launch to the moon a privately funded spacecraft capable of completing a series of exploration and transmission tasks. There are currently 25 registered teams for the Google Lunar X PRIZE, which is one of four active competitions from X PRIZE Foundation, the leading nonprofit organization for creating and managing large-scale, global incentivized competitions.

And there's no way to prove the opposite.

I really hate these type of Topics. There is an ENORMOUS amount of evidence the U.S. Landed on the Moon as well as proof positive by Triangulation of the Radio Signals sent to and from the Moon's Lunar Landers never mind Giant Saturn V Rockets being launched into space.
It would be impossible to fake the Lunar Missions. Split Infinity

That's a GOOD ONE! LOL! Those shows or Movies look better or more real to you!? LOL!
The fact is...even though we went to the Moon in 69...it would be easy to go today. There is always an element of danger such as if the Sun had a few Massive Flares or the Craft was hit by Micro-Meteorites...but by and by...it is not that hard to do anymore and with the exception of Landing on the Moon...even back then...it was not all that hard once we developed the Saturn V...a project headed by Wernher von Braun...the former German rocket maker who created the NAZI V-2. Von Braun's hero and person he called his inspiration was American Rocket Designer....Robert Goddard. Goddard was the Father of Modern Rocket Design but the U.S. Military was not interested in his concepts which were around Decades before Von Braun's.
........Solar flares can send burst of radiation as high as 1000 rad. Would be fatal. (side note, I heard they lowered the dose effects. Cheched wikipedia. It's saying we can handle 100-200 rad. Foock that! What a joke. OH REALLY? We can handle 100-200 rad because the g--v says it's okay? Get real. You'd be puking at 70 rad.)
.......So again to get a burst of 70 rad in space is nothing. You'd get that and be puking in you space suite.
It would be easier to Go to the Moon than Fake going to the Moon as you do not spend Billions on Giant Rockets and Launch them into space and have a Unmanned Lunar Landing Craft as anyone with a HAM RADIO and a few other friends with HAM Radios can easily Triangulate...AND THEY DID...the position of the Saturn V and the Separating Lunar Orbiter and Lunar Landing Craft. All of this was documented by Thousands of People World Wide as well as we were in a RACE TO THE MOON with the SOVIETS...they would never have allowed a Hoax to not be made public.
.......They could simulate that with the robot they did send to the moon prior, or by a satalite.
We placed a Laser Reflecting Mirror on the Lunar Surface to measure the distance changes between the Earth and Moon...we still use it to this day. Plus we have telescopes that can see the FLAG never mind the Lunar Lander Undercarriages as well as we can see the Lunar Rovers and the TRACKS the tires made.
.......They could have done that with the robot missions they did. Show me the flag? And also if it is there it could have been placed by the robot.
I am sorry but for you to think this was a Hoax...I cannot even label a Conspiracy Theory as the Proof is SO OVER WHELMING that we went to the Moon multiple times...that it is more like a case of DENIAL of a fact that you cannot point out even ONE event that you would claim as proof to your belief it was a Hoax...that cannot be explained as well as tested by experiment and proved to be an effect that would occur on the Lunar Surface.

...... So we went to the moon then scrapped EVERYTHING? No way dude, that spells cover up. We'd be building condos there already if it was that easy and that safe for human travel. Also there's an xprise right now. To get a robot to the moon you win 30 million. If it was that easy, why not a human? Cuz they'd fry. Google knows they didn't go. So they can't say "human visit" because it would be bad for google.
