I know and no one liked Nixon even as president.
Actually, Nixon won by a landslide in 1972. I guess you forgot to check your history books. It's obvious that Nixon had popularity in 1972 and that means the American people liked Nixon. It also means that you are dead wrong.
And the only time the astronauts ever went to a Nixon party was when forced to as public relations simple fact.
Ooops. I guess you are full of crap yet again. Neil Armstrong visited San Clemente for the 5th anniversary of the "moon" landings... Nixon hadn't resigned yet but he would resign in less than a month. Neil was still making public appearances in 7/19/74 and playing the Nixon's Apollo poker game.
Armstrong announced shortly after the Apollo 11 flight that he did not plan to fly in space again.[102] He was appointed Deputy Associate Administrator for aeronautics for the Office of Advanced Research and Technology, Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA), but served in this position for only a year, and resigned from it and NASA as a whole in 1971
Not to mention the political ramifications of attending a Nixon party.
15 Apollo astronauts attended Nixon's party in San Clemente. Are you going to deny that?
What about the ramifications of Nixon attending an astronaut party in Las Vegas?
Nixon cancelled his Las Vegas invitations because he didn't want to appear at the Dunes Resort Hotel, with the Apollo astronauts, 10 years after the moon landings, the whole show was on TV. That's why Nixon invited the astronauts to a private gathering at his "Western White House", his ill gotten 26-acre complex in San Clemente.

Sure. If you have RN, Wernher von Braun and Howard Hughes, maybe some help from Kubrick & Disney, definitely some help from the TV networks and the Pentagon, it's entirely plausible that Apollo was a TV show created by a production team for broadcasting to the entire world as brainwashing propaganda.
In the United States RN wasn't perceived as the Apollo president, Kennedy was. But in the rest of the world Nixon was the Conqueror of the Moon. And he sent all those astronauts on world tours which he followed behind and eventually he was passing moon rocks out to third world dictators of U.S. puppet regimes for propaganda alone.
It was a fabulous strategy. Nixon then strode into Beijing and Moscow as the Conqueror of the Moon and won the landslide election in 1972. It's all very meaningful in an esoteric sense. There's a lot of Masonic and Howard Hughes influences in the Apollo narratives that A.D.'s are badly misinformed about.
Watergate was not just about Nixon's enemies... you allude to, but do not name, those enemies, so I have to ask you about who those enemies were?

it's funny that John Glenn, Alan Shepard and Neil Armstrong did not want to attend the Nixon party in 1979.
The First American to orbit, First American in space (15-minutes of fame) and First American on the Moon........ stayed away from Nixon's 1979 San Clemente party. That's real history. That's real facts.
In the attempt to prove that the lunar landings did not occur, you have,

bbracken, I have stated many times in this thread that I do not need to prove any or all of the Apollo landings did not occur. That's not my job!
LBJ didn't need to prove the NV gunboats were real or fake. LBJ wasn't interested in the truth he was interested in controlling the historical narrative.
When NASA published the official timeline for Apollo 15 they forgot to add the TV press conference. They did that to control the historical narrative.
I can think of two reasons why NASA didn't put the TV press conference in the timeline. 1. They did not like Jim Irwin's comment during the interview. and 2. There are no floating objects in that video.

This thread has been very productive for Apollo disclosures of the moon landing hoax. It's been 170 pages and we haven't even touched on the medical mysteries and miracle cures, miracle surgeries, the secret surgeries,
or how a diagnosed case of l a b y r i n t h i t i s was renamed to the much more exotic sounding Ménière's disease.
The Statement by President Nixon, 5 January 1972.
I have decided today that the United States should proceed at once with the development of an entirely new type of space transportation system designed to help transform the space frontier of the 1970's into familiar territory, easily accessible for human endeavor in the 1980's and '90's.
After holding research and teaching positions at Harvard and Princeton Universities, he joined Hughes Aircraft in 1948 and later worked at the Guided Missile Division of the Ramo-Wooldridge Corporation. In 1958, Fletcher co-founded the Space Electronics Corporation in Glendale, California, which, after a merger, became the Space General Corporation. He was later named systems vice president of the Aerojet General Corporation in Sacramento, California. In 1964, he became president of the University of Utah, a position he held until he was named NASA Administrator in 1971.

Keep learning your history guys! Maybe you will figure it out one day but I doubt it

Nixon turned off the money for Apollo, he cancelled all further lunar explorations and he bought into the Shuttle program --long term-- with the help of NASA administrator and former Hughes associate James C. Fletcher. The result of that decision has kept NASA in low earth orbit for the last 42 years.
I stilldon't understand why Apollo Defenders want to take Richard Nixon out of the Apollo equation and out of the Apollo narratives. Nixon & Howard Hughes are always in the background of the historical narratives that you guys never think to ask to questions about.

Ramo-Wooldridge is TRW and that is Howard Hughes related. And that means NASA Administrator James C. Fletcher worked for Howard Hughes for approximately 10 years, 1948-1958.

Because the entirety of the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo programs' development took place during the Kennedy and Johnson administrations. The first crewed flight to the Moon took place during LBJ's time. The first two flights into the Van Allen Belts took place during the Gemini program, before the eyes of the world, with LBJ in office. If there was any plot to defraud the public, it would have been hatched by JFK and implemented by LBJ. Your obsession with Nixon is completely, totally, maddeningly off the mark. Nixon spent the crucial years of the space age watching TV and nursing highballs in San Clemente.

yes it is my claim.. it is also NASA's claim, and it is also the youtube posters claim..
you are the one who does not believe the dirt/dust falls the same amount of pixels over the same amount of frames as john young.. so why dont you prove it to yourself and to prove myself wrong??
you know where to get the video, its not difficult to get a free video editing software.. so go ahead and prove me wrong, that is what you are supposed to do when you dont believe someones claim.. you make a counter claim with EVIDENCE..

We are let to believe that Keep Out Zones are un-enforceable, when in fact, the LRO and LADEE spacecrafts are equipped with highly advanced laser weapons.
Money is nothing. Political will is everything. And there has been no political will (from any leader or any nation) to return a man to the moon since Nixon. That's why Nixon belongs in this thread.
