NASA releases closer look at the Apollo lunar landing sites.

Apparently the LRO has been dropped into a lower lunar orbit to get higher resolution pictures of the '69-'72 Apollo landing sites. It's sort of eerie to see things left abandoned just as they were almost half a century ago. For the astronauts I imagine it's like seeing an aerial picture of a site where you camped as a kid with the tent, stove and footprints still in place. Likely there isn't much left of the nylon American flag after decades of incessant cosmic radiation except the staff.

So it looks like Detroit?

My favorite conspiracy theory going right now is this one....

At least we're getting closer. :D They think something landed.

Detroit has far more craters. :D

Can't be Detroit.
There's no Gang signs spray painted everywhere.
:haha:

*Ahem*

So, as evidence that NASA landed on the moon, you're going to use pictures that NASA claims to have taken of the moon? They look pretty suspicious to me. I've seen pictures of the moon before. It's ROUND! All these pictures show is a big flat surface. At least when they faked the missions they has the foresight to tape round things to the windows to make things look round. Besides, I've seen the videos of the astronots. I don't remember ever seeing any giant white arrows and letters all over the place. Those are obvious markings for the prop department to place the fake scenery for the pictures. Not only that, but it's pretty obvious that at least one of the pictures has been altered. That one shows two Antares "landers". How can there be two of them? And why is one so much larger? It can only be a second model built for close up shots.




Did I hit enough of the craziness? :D

I love that clip.

The best answer to the doubters, is: The Russians were tracking the Apollo missions as the travelled to the moon, so if it was "faked" why did they not bring it up?

Back to the original posts, very nice pics, and hard to believe we have not been back yet.

I know how jazzed I get hiking someplace new... walking on the moon must've been incredible.

No, because they and the Americans have a base at the dark side of the moon where they keep all the allien abductees ... of course.

:doh:

.

You forgot that the shadows are going different directions, and why did the starfield disappear. Other than that, good job! :yeah:

Oh yeah, and if there are two astronauts in the picture... ... who took it? :shifty:

Elvis.

Laser Reflectors.... Nuff Said:salute:

Cheers

THAT is a conspiracy! :yep:

In theory. Good job I wasn't search for 'black holes' :o

That was my usual response which shut people up for the most part. Now I see wackos on youtube spouting off about how the Russians didn't dare expose the hoax for fear of nuclear reprisal or that they had even worse secrets that the Americans would bring to light if they didn't play along. Where does it end with those nutcases?

NEVER!!!!!
