How many of you thank that we
actually landed on the moon and had the technology to do so in 1969.

Astronomers continue to bounce laser beams off the
reflectors that were left on the moon. Yes, the lunar
landings were real.

Just glancing at the books on one of my shelves--Taylor's
"Lunar Science: A Post-Apollo View," Short's "Planetary Geology,"
Chapman's "The Inner Planets"--the scientific evidence is far
more persuasive than anything offered by the hoax cranks.
None of them seem to know anything useful about astronomy,
photography or any other part of reality.

For that matter, the technology of 1969 wasn't capable of producing
a credible faked film of a lunar landing. Compare the lunar scenes
of "2001" to the films brought back from the Apollo landings.

The real question is, why do idiots waste time raising doubts
about the Apollo flights?
