Apollo Moon Hoax: New Evidence

[entropy]

I enjoyed the Bad Astronomer's demolition of Fox TV's Apollo Moon Hoax program. (http://www.badastronomy.com/bad/tv/foxapollo.html) However, none of his arguments addresses the photographic evidence presented on this page. (http://www.ews.uiuc.edu/~akapadia/moon.html) I'm sure any reasonable person will agree that the direction of the shadow cast by exhibit A is conclusive.

The site with the puppets is better, but I don't know the link.

I actually know a chick that claims to have been on the site of the studio set where the moon landing was hoaxed. However, this same chick was offered to be in playboy mag when she was 17, can bench-press 200lbs and is an expert in fighting.

Conclusive of what? Be specific.

Conclusive of what? Be specific.
Conclusive of the potential for humor, whether intended or unintended, inherent in this matter!

She didn't belong to Yellow Bamboo, by any chance...

It is interesting to note that believers of hoaxes connected with the Apollo moon landings in 1969, conveniently forget that signals have been received from equipment left on the Moon ever since the landings were made.

Unless they aren't told.

Yes, but that equipment was left there by automated probes, not human beings. Obviously no human being could travel to the moon, the radiation in the Van Allen Belts would melt the amygdala in the brain and the astronauts would just sob all the way there then sulk and refuse to get out once they arrived.

Since people claiming to be astronauts have been seen alive and well, and are notably not sitting around crying and claiming that nobody cares about them and/or marching up to the largest person in the bar and trying to start a fight, man has not been to the moon. QED.

(I leave the obvious point that by my own observations the moon is only about an inch across and is would therefore by quite difficult to stand on for any length of time as an exercise to the reader).

Just for everyones edification, they're not just "pupets", they are Clangers.

I loved the Clangers. Especially the Soup Dragon.
