@Someday I usually don’t respond to long lists of “questions” or “evidence”. Invariably, even if every question is answered the original poster will just respond with “Well what about this NEW list of questions?” I want to be sure that, if I answer two or three of these with a decent amount of clarity that you will at least take a second to think “Maybe I’m wrong” instead of finding more stuff to throw a the wall. Anyhoo, here goes nothing.
- The flag is not waving it’s held up in a frame to keep it straight.
- The math as to how to land on the moon was solved in the 1940s. The computers to run the equations took up entire floors of NASA. The Apollo spacecraft had a small computer, but the big equations were run at NASA and the answers radioed in. Katherine Johnson famously won a presidential medal for her work in running those computers, though it took fifty years to get it to her as she was black.
- The live video feed was transmitted to millions of TV stations globally. I’m not sure why having the recording from the spacecraft is important
- And they were successful and the Russians admitted defeat in the space race. If it was so easy to prove a hoax, I’m certain the Russians would never have stepped down
- What particular technology was missing in 1969 that prevented them from landing on the moon? Rockets have been around for decades. Both the USSR and the US had already sent men and satellites in space, even to the moon.
- And the dozens of moon landing astronauts that came later? Or the thousands of people who worked on the project? Not one of them spoke out?
- There are actually images from modern telescopes showing the moon landing sites as seen from Earth. So your statement is factually incorrect
