Did Humans make it to the moon?

Personally, i believe the authorities on this one, but one should never stop questiong.

Sorry for marking this "general chess discussion", should have been of topic, sorry.

we're off to an extremely doubting start.

Thanks to the mod who changed this to off topic.

No, human beings never made it to Moon. Not just that, human beings never travelled outside the atmosphere. Further, even man-made objects have not travelled into space. why? Because, Rockets cannot travel in vacuum. Just like aeroplanes, Rockets also need thrust ( i.e. push from the air) to travel. After a certain height, the density of air is too less to support the flight of aeroplanes or rockets. That means, you cannot use aeroplanes or rockets to travel into space. That means there are no satellites or space labs floating in the space. That means, all the space walks are stage-managed under the swimming pools. It also means that all the landings on Moon or Mars are fake. Such landings are recorded in deserts on the Earth only.

that is exactly what Tommy Cooper said, Ash.

My neighbor, who is a pilot, says it was technologically impossible for the moon landing to be faked in 1969. He says the technology and ability to go to the moon existed, but the ability to fake it did not.

Yes they did. When growing up, I remember seeing the pix in the Big Soviet Encyclopedia. Trust me, the Soviets would have called the bluff if it was a bluff. The Soviets had all the technical means of tracking the missions and they promptly acknowledged and congratulated the US for this feat. Moon landing were one of the most proud Human achievements and we all should be happy and proud that they indeed took place.

As to points of why it can be a hoax, you all can do a little research and see how they were thoroughly refuted. Of course, basic science understanding is a must for you to know that it's the conspiracy theorists that are full of shit on this particular matter. :)

Europeans actually never made to the New World.

Any that were here were brought over by the brilliant indigenous peoples, whereupon they spread like the euro-plague, and so now we see all that horrible light skin and what have you.

No need of the air to make a push.Just newton laws of action-reaction ignition burst would push the object in vacuum.

Im Alexei!

The USA put men on the Moon in 1969 but may well have also done a sound stage photo shoot for whatever reason.
