It's feature length. Why don't you give us the synopsis?

The lunar reflectors by themselves would seem to be definitive, Seige.

Those can be delivered remotely. :tinfoil:
It's a lot easier to land on the moon than it is to get Siegebreaker not to spy for the Chinese.
The basic premise is that thousands of people from all branches of the US Government have managed to never talk about this, that the reams of documents pertaining to this have never been unearthed, and that somehow some overweight guy posting in his underwear from his parent's bedroom has somehow found the TRUTH(tm)?
The people keeping this secret are probably just part of the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy.

Jesus put those there when he rode to the moon on a dinosaur.

Just because Jesus dissed you back in '33 doesn't mean you have to mock him.

I am sure Sheilbh could come up with some religious doctrinal statements that would not only make my idea not-far-fetched, but, in fact, inevitable. :lol:
He's that good.
I agree, the Moon is a hoax.
Koreans are lovely.
It's sad when otherwise rational people buy into some far fetched conspiracy theory like "the moon hoax".

Well thank heavens Siege doesn't fall into that category.
Not this shit again.
I remember the good times on EUOT with this. I think I had a few guys threatening to kill me for supporting the hoax.
Death by track suit.
The Russians must also have been tracking the Apollos pretty closely. Why wouldn't they have called us out on it?

One or two did.

I think they may have claimed it was fake. It was in the same issue of Pravda as the great success of the eight five year plan and something about sea monsters.

I wonder what percentage of Tea Party supporters believe in the moon landing was a hoax
There is no reason for it to be an hoax. You also have to believe that the Russians would fall for it. I don't think so.
Here's an article (http://tofspot.blogspot.com/2013/08/the-great-ptolemaic-smackdown.html) about the development of the heliocentric model and Galileo. Read parts 1, 2 and 9 for the heliocentric bits, parts 3-8 about Galileo being an asshole.
Not on-topic, but I was quite entertained by it.
Edit: 3-8 is Galileo, 9 is heliocentric.
I used to think the strongest rebuttal of the hoax theory was the impossibility of that many people keeping a secret forever. But then information about Ultra was finally declassified.
I thought Buzz Aldrin punching a guy was a pretty strong rebuttal.

I never considered such an argument to be that strong. It's not enough to blow the whistle, you also have to retain your credibility. For all we know, there are some conspiracy theorists out there who are really discredited whistle-blowers.

Orders of magnitude difference in the numbers of people and level of screening makes the comparison inapt.

It was cool, but it would have been so much cooler if Aldrin had literally kicked him when he was down.
Lots of people were aware of Ultra, but very few actually knew where it was coming from.

Which could be the same with the Moon missions.

That doesn't make any sense. Still, Ultra was a real thing.
The relative sizes of, and distance between, Earth and Moon, to scale, with a beam of light traveling between them at the speed of light.
Scale model of the Earth and the Moon, with a beam of light traveling between them at the speed of light. It takes approximately 1.26 seconds.

I love Space.
I'm creating my own modified Drake Equation.
Is that beam of light drawn to scale? :unsure:
Ok, I just read the whole wiki article. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_landing_conspiracy_theories
I'm back in the fold, following the herd once again. The landings were real.
Until next year then, when I forget all the arguments in favor of the landings.
Sorry but I have PTSD and I forget a lot of shit. So you guys gonna have to put up with all this shit again next year.
Blame it on Islam.
Fucking Islam.
Islam screws up all the best moon landings.
I like ham.
Bacon is proof that Islam and Judaism are false religions.
