If the moon landing was a hoax, the Soviets would have gone out of their way to prove it was faked, amirite?

Do people still believe that the Soviet Union was an actual country and not a hoax to give the US more reason to spend money on war?/s

Fake coins get highest bids in auction

The complete lack of evidence of faking the moon landing is obviously all the proof you need that there has been a cover up. /s

I don't know about that, wouldn't it be better to let your enemy think you have been fooled?

Soviets are a hoax made up by JFK to cover up a proxy war in Cuba. Against the Soviets.

Come on, we all know the US and the USSR was the same country. Oh, and Finland is a province of Japan.

@Hatchadi USSR starts with US.. I mean, duuuuuuh

United States of Siberia and Russia

How didn't I realise this before?

Maybe you did. Maybe the National Soviet Agency erased your memory like they did to Ivan Fitzgereï Kennedoff..

JFK as president is a hoax made up of Americans which are also a fake nation in a round planet that is also a hoax because it's really flat.

The US is at war with Russia... The us has ALWAYS been at war with Russia.

Not just the soviets. Radars around the world tracked those moon flights.

@Sewcrazy4cats Lol, are you one of those guys that actually believes in the moon?

Well, there is at least the hologram projecting satellite... but its only about the size of an SUV. Nothing to land on.

It's not fake and everyone with a sense of critic can tell that.

That's a tired ass argument that gets exposed easily once you realize that the Soviet Union, US, and every other national leader were lizard people the conspired to create a fake Cold War.

The landings happened. But NASA faked or doctored pics b/c they didn't always have the best pics (the safety of the mission was more important than photography) and they figured people wouldn't care if the pics were "cleaned up" a little. That's the controversy.

i know they happened, there's overwhelming evidence, the original broadcast that was broadcasted around the world live was the REAL ACTUAL LANDING, but the original tapes for it were said to be lost, so it could be possible that nasa had to perhaps recreate it

Eh, the Americans believed there was a bomber and later missile "gap" with the Soviets, based on their claims, and set about increasing their numbers. In reality the US was already ahead, and spent billions of dollars to widen the opposite gap. The Soviet economy couldn't afford to counter it.

The Cold War was crazy like that, as sceptical as you were about the other side's claims, you made plans based on them being true. And yes, the Lunar Landing had a military purpose too - "if we can land people on the Moon using rockets, we can deliver those same rockets anywhere we choose on Earth with a nuclear payload."

But the moon is still in the sky! How can it have landed?!

with that logic, Osama would have went to great lengths to disprove 9/11

You are assuming that the conspiracy theory is based on evidence in the first place.

I like to imagine that the moon landing was real.but they still showed a fake one on tv for whatever reason

Mcgee0s avatar Mcgee0 Yeah You Are +5Reply
@teknogreek For what reason?

I don't know. Maybe they didn't expect to actually get to the moon. Maybe they found something no one should know about? Like I said, I like to imagine it... Just for fun. i'm not saying that this is actually the case XD

My theory is that Nixon called Brezhnev and told him there were ten pairs of American jeans in it for him if he played along.

I don't understand why hoaxers can't believe we went to the moon. It's not rocket science

You have no idea how much "moon landing was a hoax" TV programs there are in russia to this day.

Thatoneduderyans avatar Thatoneduderyan Yeah You Are +4Reply

The blooper reel alone proves it. When they trip and kick up dust, those particles fall at the rate of gravity on the moon, not earth. We were half a century away from cgi that could possibly be that accurate. Particle physics takes a lot more rendering than other things and all the computers used at the time weren't as powerful as a single phone is now. (And I'm not sure a basic phone can presently render particle physics that accurate in any reasonable time)

The success of that mission was actually so lucky. Feel like the gov fully expected them to die up there

Oh, I'm sure the Soviets are in on the hoax is what someone would say who believes in conspiracy theories.

@Tanmoykayesen Oh, I'm sure the Soviets are in on the hoax is what someone would say who believes in conspiracy theories.

Yes, actually Soviets are still existing. They are the deep state of Russia and deep into it with the US liberals. /s

(Somehow I hope /s is unnecessary, but just to be sure.)

Shhh! Everything outside of the USA is fake. You are specimens in an alien zoo. Canadians are really your handlers. All your feed contains powerful haloucinagens to prevent you finding out the truth.

And we'd have been none the wiser since we don't watch soviet tv

Unfortunately there is no reasoning with conspiracy theorists and they will twist your rationale to support their inane beliefs.

In Interstellar, one of the school teachers calmly states that the space race was a cleaver piece of American propaganda to drive the Soviets to spend money up to financial ruin on the unattainable goal of space flight and technology.

I will not be surprised if in real life someone makes an argument of this sort. *Sigh*

I'd believe it if it turned out they shot a fake moon landing in case the real one went horribly awry, and then just never had to use the footage because it went well and the astronauts involved survived.

Dumbass conspiracy people. Of course the Moon exists and Earth is round!

Mars on the other hand…

I mean... the "physical evidence on the lunar surface" isn't really strong evidence. If it were a hoax, faking a photo would be pretty simple. Not a denier, just saying there's better evidence out there.

you can literally point lasers at the moon and have them bounce back to you using equipment placed there by the Apollo missions. The physical evidence is a lot more than just photos

NASA hired Stanley Kubrick to fake the moon landing but because he's such a fanatic for getting things perfect he insisted they film on location.

If nasa were willing to fake massive accomplishments then they would have had a second by now...

But hoaxer logic doesn't work like this. Hoaxer logic is like - How do I know that YOU, OP, are not part of this elaborate conspiracy as well?

Maybe they are behind a lot of the "fake" murmurings?

I always like the conspiracy theories that require all the world's governments to be in on it. Like, have you seen how impossible that would be?

So you're saying that the people who claim the moon landing was fake are working for the Soviets?
