- Go to THE MOON-LANDING IS MISSING?

I never questioned it. But, it doesn't seem sensical to spend that much money on a hoax.

Hi
Wasn't born yet when they first landed on the moon but then, according to some theories, none of were. Some people believe that either the aztecs or the mayans had astronauts.
Personally, I don't see the point in faking something like that. I know that the cold war was really hot then but even so ...

I Am Too Young...
...to remember watching it (though apparently I did) and I've had serious doubts about the reality of it.
I mean, it's 200+ degrees up there in the sun, and MINUS 200+ degrees in the shade. Plus there's the Van Allen belt of SERIOUS radiation, and they survived all that with flimsy little suits?
And what about those photoes? They ALL have shadows going in multiple directions, suggesting multiple light sources. How is that possible?
And even the guy at Hasselblad who designed the camera has serious doubts as to how it could have worked. Zero gravity, the severe temperatures, and the all-round odd conditions - plus there's all that raw radiation. I mean, up until recently, by films were damaged by x-ray machines at airports!!!
There's a lot more to this story, but this is not the place...

Whacky, I just yesterday found some Easter decorations that I was looking for back in early spring. I finally gave up then. Now that I was looking for something for autumn, I find the Easter stuff. LOL

I wonder if some crazy employee
is keeping it 'for posterity'. Of course, that's not something that you could just casually pop out and state your asking price.

whacky, I subscribe to Blockbuster DVD online, and
I just found a DVD that I thought for sure I mailed in, for which my account was never credited. I finally notified them, and they cancelled the debt, so to speak. So now I must eat crow and mail it back . . . with a big SORRY or something like that. Oh well. I don't usually lose things for so long. Afterall, my house is fairly tidy!

I've read those theories about possible hoaxes. There are also doubts about alien crash landings stories.

I use to think it was real......but I have my doubts.......too many shady things have been said and discredited by this event.
