What is the Flat Earth Society's view on the moon landing? Is it a hoax, or is it real?

[nickrulercreator]

They don't believe it happened (it did).

[gnome ann]

they think that the moon is very close/there is no way to get there, and also tehy think that if the governments are wiling to fake the worlds shape there is no reason for them to be truthful about anything else

[Pete Svarrior]

and also tehy think that if the governments are wiling to fake the worlds shape there is no reason for them to be truthful about anything else

Not at all. In fact, you've managed to present the exact inverse of the causal relation here.

I would worship FEers that believe the Moon Landings were real.

Obviously they don't.

Would you also worship visitors from other galaxies?

The reasons for the moon landing hoax are more complicated than just deceiving the world about the shape of the earth. As with everything in life, there were other factors involved, including a Cold War.

The fact we haven't been back in 50 years should prove the hoax. Tons of videos where they say someday we can go to the moon. Where's the American Spirit that supposedly got us there? Gone, but not in real life, only your make believe one on a movie set.

03/20/1992   First over 300: Kenny Bernstein , 301.7 mph at Gainesville, Florida driving the Budweiser dragster

They never tried to repeat it..he he or go back he he

The record for a quarter-mile race in a top-fuel car is 336.15 mph set by Tony Schumacher.

That's some space buggy.

No it doesn't. That's not proof.

Again, not proof. The "American Spirit" that got us there wasn't spirit, it was fear and a determination to beat the Soviets. Newsflash: we're not in a race like that anymore.

What about this?

Why? Given the advantages in CGI it would be MUCH easier to fake now than it would have been in the late 60s/early 70s.
Why wouldn't they just fake some more?

We stopped going because it was expensive and it had been done. 6 Apollo missions landed on the moon and it went from a worldwide "event" to something that the public had little interest in, just like how no-one takes much notice when people climb Everest these days. It almost became routine and while scientifically useful it was harder and harder to justify the sheer cost of it. In the end the latter Apollo missions were cancelled completely.

Honestly, I'm disappointed we haven't been back in my lifetime but part of it is political will and public buy in. In the 60s the space race was fuelled by the cold war, now there's no particular reason to justify that level of expense. You need to throw away some of those tin foil hats, fella.

And, even if we did fake going to the moon, why did we fake it NINE times? Why not one and done?

[Treep Ravisarras]

Because people weren't convinced it was real. So had to do it again. In the end they just gave up. Cost too much money.

Did get nice shots though spectacular. Note: FE believe moon landing hoax, but don't believe rockets are fake.

600 million watched the first landing. Billions more heard about it. Pretty sure everyone was convinced.

If the moon landing was a hoax, why wouldn't the soviet union contest it? They weren't really the kind of people to just give up. If it was faked, why would they concede to the Americans?

Not sure.

The published story is that they have tried:







The Americans obviously reaped the increase in fame and technological reputation from the hoax?

[9 out of 10 doctors agree]

The fact we haven't been back in 50 years should prove the hoax.

You can't think of a single other reason why we didn't go back?

Like, say, that each one was six billion dollars? Or that the space race ended and there was no longer massive public interest? Or even, get this, that NASA is gearing up for Mars right now?

And also, it hasn't been 50 years since the last Moon landing, and I'm fairly confident that SpaceX will get theirs in before December 2022.

And also...It's literally just a ball of rock in space, that we've been too multiple times. It's kinda like going to an empty room that no ones ever been in before. It's like "Woah, first person here" for the first few times, then it's like "Woah...been here...so not really woah" haha

I went to the Bahama's 30 years ago and haven't been back. Does that mean the Bahama's don't exist?

Obviously they don't.

Can anyone tell when at night when moon is out you can clearly see clouds behind the moon and the moon is in front of the clouds? mmmm...

Dontcha mean the Moon is bright enough that you can't discern the clouds in front of it?
