Yeah, yeah, We've all seen 'Capricorn One'!!
Wasn't OJ's acting TERRIBLE? (even then!)
Seriousley, though, it cost $25bn to go there. If it was faked, it would have cost 10 times as much in shush money. Why has no-one senior (now retired) come forwards?
If it was a fake, where did they get the 000's of pounds of lunar samples? The Soviet Luna 16 only brought back a few ounces.
If they didn't go, the Soviet radar would've picked that up after Saturn 5 launch.
They just kept quiet? Hogwash, that's cold war dynamite!!
When Apollo 11 was launched, they seemed in a hurry to get Luna 15 up there!!
Did it divert attention from Vietnam? No, it actually became yet another thing for the hairies to slag the US Govt off!!!
Remember, Apollos 18 to 20 were cancelled because Congress cut the NASA budget.
Lets have an end to all the sad, paranoid, 'of-course-there-wouldn't-be-any-evidence-that's-how-the-bad-guys-work', Oliver Stone-type personality-disorder anoraks.
The truth may be out there, but it is rarely that complex!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
