I suspect that we landed on the moon but what material is the flag made of to last all these years?
Last I read the flag wasn't visible from earth, even with the most powerful telescope. I believe I read that on a NASA site that had debunked "non-moon landing theories".Originally posted by lburou
The American flag, among other litter, is visible on the moon with a telescope....How did it get there? A communist plot? A congressional committee? Jimy Hoffa put it there? I think WE put it there, just like it showed on television In my view, its pretty hard to explain away something you can see with a telescope right from your own back yard. Pretty hard to fake.
There are a number of things to question in this existance, our visits to the moon are not on that list.
It is good that you are cynical about these unbelievers....They are too easily led
P.S. Your uncle prolly swallowed too much antifreeze to think clearly

I would think that the technology required to fake the footage would be less than the technology required to actually get to the moon. Motion pictures had been around for at least 70 years and space exploration was much less than that. Plus, it seemed that the Russians were always one step ahead of us yet they never could get a man to the moon.
The F14 Tomcat uses the computing power of a 286 computer. I believe this also has something to do with why it takes hours to load up mission data to the onboard computer.Originally posted by BLACK6PACK
Actually the computing power to land on the moon is a fraction of what it takes to do computer animation. Heck, they still only use 386 and 486 computers on the space shuttle.
