Had a friend who I'm pretty sure believed it was faked. He spent so much time researching and arguing. If it was a joke, pretty funny and dedicated.

His main argument was how improbable it was that we could make it through the Van Allen belt and inconsistencies in interviews from Astronauts that went to the moon.
I'm not an expert but from everything I've read it's not as impossible to go through Van Allen belt as deniers make it sound.

The highly technical answer would be they chose the safest path through the belt and went really f**ing fast through it. The danger from radiation was miniscule.

Fake. I was convinced at Johnson space center they have replicas of lunar lander and rover exact size… lander was the size of a Volkswagen Beetle and they say they folded up the parts of the rover on the lander and assembled on the moon. BS. Rover is too big… then I dug into all the other irregularities… YouTube it from people smarter than me

you think the moon landing was fake then?

I’m not gonna do your homework for you.

Here’s a question for you. Does it seem plausible that we can’t re-create the technology to go to the moon because for some odd reason, they accidentally erased all of the old data? One of the (alleged) greatest achievements of mankind, gone. Poof. The technology was just better 60 years ago, said no reasonable person ever

Maybe the "fake" part is that the technology has been erased, maybe it is there and useable but there is just no real reason to go back?

It isnt. Yes its an incredible amount of radiation. They're also passing through it at 25,000mph with aluminum shielding. They couldn't take days in the belt. Luckily it only takes an hour to cross.

Lmao, 25k mph? You really are gullible. No human has been in something going 25k miles an hour. This dumb hillbilly thinks you can buy a laser and hit a reflector box 237k miles away on a mass that’s tidally locked with our planet. Think about that for a second …. Let’s see if someone has a brain as to what makes it impossible. It should be fun because you can’t google it

You guys ever see that video of that sled going 6k mph. Imagine going 4x that. YouTube that sled. It’s unreal

Do you think SpaceX, Blue Origin, and NASA are all lying to the American people? It is scientific fact that the escape velocity from earth is ~25,000 mph. People have served on the ISS, for FFS.

No, because that isn't possible. Centrifugal force prevents that from ever happening on a planet with the gravity of Earth.

Yes, they’re lying. You probably think Katie Perry went to space. Every single agency is stealing your money and justifying it with lies. Good thing is all this will be common knowledge soon. And then you’ll have the same epiphany everyone else who already knows this **** is fake

Let me just ask you this, just so I have a baseline.

Is the current government lying about anything that they say? Or are they totally honest?

How does triangulation happen, according to you?
There’s numerous ways it can happen. Angles and known surveying.

There’s no satellites orbiting earth. There’s high altitude balloons. You think you see a satellite at night? A tin box smaller than a car reflecting in the sun that supposedly 250 miles away. Think about that for a second. An eagle couldn’t see that. It’s absurd.

You’ll just get angry and pound Google some more. And believe dipshits jumped around and fell on jagged rocks and played around like they’re at recess on a foreign body(the moon) in a vacuum where a slight tear in the suit is emanate death.

You’re getting scammed. Most people are. We are just on a tax farm and fed bs. You’re emotionally invested into it. Everyone was at some point.

They charged like 30 million for a space buggy in 1969 and produced something some garage junky could do for probably a few hundred bucks back then. And that was just the buggy. They do it today. Tax your state billions and give you ****** roads and terrible education

No satellites, really?

I'm not going to dig into it right now but I'm pretty sure the missing data is an urban myth.

You do realize there is proof on the moon, right?

You went to the moon and proved it? Right on!

NASA claimed they lost the telemetry. Said they even recorded over it.

Your inability to comprehend it doesnt make it any less reality.

Im going to assume this is low grade trolling.

Again, I KNOW they are "normal" people in everyday life, they drink coffee in the morning, they drive to work, they chat with coworkers about their day and their plans.
