Why have you desended onto earth to deliver all this bullshit! Why don't you go drink some coke and die... oh wait that was bullshit aswell, deary me you suck!
I'm not surprised america lied again on that one, you know.. america is full of gays.. that's got to mean something.. .Once I was walking home on a sunny day.. I was happy when suddelny an american bombed me.. that was such a putdowner..
"still, you have no explanation to why all the excessive heat and radiation didn't fry them
and why we've never even tried to get back there later "
Well to protect from heat they had, surprisingly, heat shields.
As far as radiation and "frying" are concerned, many tests were carried out to prove that it was, in fact, perfectly safe. Again, most of it could be blocked by simple shielding, and the speed at which they flew through it reduced the time during which any radation could penetrate the hull. Some radiation did reach the astronauts, but the dose was not nearly enough to cause harm.
"We" did go back there several more times, and there's currently talk of further missions in the future by the ESA.
I'm not flaming, I'm just giving my opinion and backing it up. Given what you said 13 posts up, Michael R, why on earth did you start this topic?
after reading that last one i have to say that the chances of it all being a hoax are fairly small and i have an answer to a simple question:
"why dont we go back there" [may not be actual quote]
this is simple: What possible profit can there be gained from repeatedly makeing a rediculously expensive trip to somewhere where there is little more than dust and several american flags? NONE
if it were made of cheese (no its not you fool) then maybe you could mine it other than that all our clothes and skin generate more than enough dust to make a mess of every house that needs it.
consider it in fools terms, would you hire out an entire concorde (at its current prices = $$$$$$) take a trip to an uninhabited volcano in the pacific (or other sea if ur in america) and then go home again? no. you might do it once if no-one had ever done it before and a concorde was the only wa to get there, but otherwise no
conspiricy theories are indeed bad for you

Nah, it's easier to fake the thing rather than actually go to the moon. Given the technology back then.
Why?
1. This is the US government. They always love showing that they're the best and it's effect on American morale is rather disturbing.
2. They were competing with 'evil' Russia. How would you feel if your biggest competitor defeated you in a race in front of everyone who gives you taxes for your multi-billion dollar space program?
"...believes NASA had all the money and abillities (they were oh so clever) to make it fake, on the other hand NASA was not clever enough to do it properly???"
> Dude, a studio is CHEAP. Just a few million dollars at best. A space program costs billions, especially back then when simple calculators were huge and liquid hydrogen was expensive. Orbiting the Earth is easy, but actually landing somewhere (besides on water) is a challenge. And then there's solar radiation, getting back to Earth, and surviving the whole trip.
I'm not saying that it's fake. I'm just saying that it would be easier to fake it.
