Allegedly . . .  ;-)

There are some very interesting points that are made that it did not really happen.... I was not there so I would not know.  

 

Apparently, nobody was there...

Hahahaha, flat earthers on the moon. Conspiracy theories.

Stretches thread gets derailed before it has even taken off.....

 

 

Wait till it explodes mid-flight (am I a bad person for saying this?)

Maybe we need a poll to see who actually believes the moon landing happened [emoji38]

 

Let's not lose sight of the fact that the there have been multiple Russian American and Japanese landings since...

I'm refusing to say what I remember about it, because it will say too much about how long I've been around. ;)

Why I remember the dates is because it left when my sister was born and landed on my mom's birthday... And its my sister's 50th birthday today [emoji38]

The other day on the radio they were talking about this. someone called in and also said he does not think so. He went further to say why havent more landings been done and carried on and on

 

From google

How many times have humans been to the moon?
While three astronauts flew to the Moon twice, of which two landed, none landed on the Moon more than once. The nine Apollo missions to the Moon occurred between December 1968 and December 1972. Apart from these twenty-four men who visited the Moon, no human being has gone beyond low Earth orbit.

No TV in those days so we were all huddled around the radio.

and saw an actual piece of moon rock on display.
