Quote:
“It is commonly believed that man will fly directly from the earth to the moon, but to do this, we would require a vehicle of such gigantic proportions that it would prove an economic impossibility. It would have to develop sufficient speed to penetrate the atmosphere and overcome the earth’s gravity and, having traveled all the way to the moon, it must still have enough fuel to land safely and make the return trip to earth. Furthermore, in order to give the expedition a margin of safety, we would not use one ship alone, but a minimum of three … each rocket ship would be taller than New York’s Empire State Building [almost ¼ mile high] and weigh about ten times the tonnage of the Queen Mary, or some 800,000 tons.”—Wernher von Braun, the father of the Apollo space program, writing in Conquest of the Moon
Von Braun is correct, a direct ascent would be economically (in terms of fuel and weight) unfeasible but I've explained this to you before you thick cunt, they didn't use the direct ascent approach, they used the Lunar orbit rendezvous, whereas the lunar lander and ascent stage are discarded before return to earth, instead of carrying dead weight both there and back.

Start off slowly, it covers the basics clearly and concisely.
It very simply covers all the misunderstood ill thought out arguments already made here "Mirrors on the Moon", "It's been scientMaTifically proven rocks iz from da Moon" etc , disappointing as I was at least expecting one or two arguments that had value, purpose or at least demonstrated that the questioner had at least spent more than 3 minutes considering any single factor of the hoax for themselves.

I fully realise that Apollo debunkers are just morons so I'm not getting involved with a 21st Century flat earther like Thermite but don't forget the Chinese have taken photos of the Apollo sites.
However, in response to Sven's comment, Blagg Jnr is a Geologist and now a Science Teacher and he has studied moon rock. I asked him if you could tell if a rock had come from the Moon or Earth and he tells me 'Yes very easily if you understand Geology'. Good enough for me (not that I need it as I'm not an idiot).

Has this moon rock been proven to taste of cheese?
Proper cheese, mind you; none of this processed shit or Darylea.
Hairy bollocks if it hasn't.

Yes, was reading about those laser reflectors that Armstrong & Aldrin at least installed (other missions may have also) and when they DO fire at them they can measure the distance between the earth & moon to the cm.
Was also saying that the various Apollo missions also brought back at least 382 kg of moon rock.
This rock has been verified as LUNAR by multiple labs all over the world (ie not just in the USA).

The race to the moon, was part political, superpowers in space. If the landings never happened, don't you think the USSR, would be shouting that from the rooftops?
To say nothing of thousands of NASA employees, none of whom, have tried to sell moon landings are fake stories.
Three of the Apollo crews, left mirrors on the moon, so laser beams could be bounced off it, to measure precisely the moon's distance, from the earth. Did the mirrors get there under their own steam?

Only a complete imbecile would believe that man hadn't stepped foot on the moon, not once but six fucking times, would have been seven but Apollo 13 had a different story to make

Didn't one of the Apollo landings involve bringing back parts from a much earlier unmanned moon lander?

I am guessing it would invlolve actually going to the moon in person and bringing back the remains of the Apollo 11 lander or something similar.
That or firing him to the moon to look in person (one way ticket).

..."I usually require some kind tangible evidence"...
So. Again, in YOUR words this time. What would constitute "tangible evidence" that men had gone to, and walked on, the moon?

|Yeah Haz, this is where you low frequency repeaters continuously go wrong in your [lack of] reasoning.
"extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence"
The evidence presented since the 60s are CGI, cartoons and Hollywood movies.
I usually require some kind tangible evidence to support any such extraordinary claims before considering them let alone wholeheartedly believing them.
Even then when something is believed and known to be true, it wouldn't shake the core of my existence were I to later discover it wasn't true, as it holds no true sway to how I feel or think.
That's why wankers like you and Coffee have such devotion to the lies that hold the fabric of your illusions together so tightly, as even the merest effort of unemotional examination would show more holes in the story, than a pointless soggy rag surrounding your airholes to protect against a virus that restricts your ability to breath.
Otherwise you'd realise what worthless pointless existences you have when all they are are Hollywood poorly scripted illusions.

What if ironies of ironies, the moon landings were actually filmed on Exmouth beach. Nobody would EVER think of that.
