Yes, a few months ago, some clown was trying to get a petition going on youtube asking the current administration to investigate the Apollo landings. He had 30 days and was supposed to get 25,000 legit online signatures before the end of March. He ended up with 94 and a lot of them where from outside of the country or obvious made up fake accounts so in fact his grand total was probably about half that. It didn't deter him one bit and he's still spouting off about how the "whisper will turn to a roar" and expose the fake landings.

Then there's another crackpot from France who goes by the youtube name of "hunchbacked". He has well over 200 videos he's done in the last few years that supposedly expose "intended incoherence's" as he calls them, that show how some of NASA's engineers and scientist where trying to leave subtle clues in the documentation and video records to somehow let the world know that the CIA was behind the alleged faked landings. This nutcase claims to be an aerospace engineer among other things and also believes he will be compared to Galileo someday when the "truth" is uncovered.

Here's a neat little video done by NASA on exactly where the Eagle touched down on the moon.

Neat posts all around. I was born right after Apollo 14 and remember nothing. I was 1.5 years old during Apollo 17. Still very fascinated with this program.

Look carefully on this forum and you might find something similar regarding another incident that happened much more recently :yep:
