Fifty-six years ago Apollo XI was traveling 5000 miles per hour on its journey to the Moon, the gravity of the Earth gradually slowing the velocity of the spacecraft from the initial 25,000 miles per hour. The total distance of the trip, one way, was 238, 900 miles. Columbia’s engines were fired for about three seconds to make a course correction. Everything was going smoothly. Of course the hard part of the mission lay ahead, the moon landing. President Nixon had prepared a just in case speech:
Fate has ordained that the men who went to the moon to explore in peace will stay on the moon to rest in peace.
These brave men, Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin, know that there is no hope for their recovery. But they also know that there is hope for mankind in their sacrifice.
These two men are laying down their lives in mankind’s most noble goal: the search for truth and understanding.
They will be mourned by their families and friends; they will be mourned by their nation; they will be mourned by the people of the world; they will be mourned by a Mother Earth that dared send two of her sons into the unknown.
In their exploration, they stirred the people of the world to feel as one; in their sacrifice, they bind more tightly the brotherhood of man.
In ancient days, men looked at stars and saw their heroes in the constellations.
In modern times, we do much the same, but our heroes are epic men of flesh and blood.
Others will follow, and surely find their way home. Man’s search will not be denied. But these men were the first, and they will remain the foremost in our hearts.
For every human being who looks up at the moon in the nights to come will know that there is some corner of another world that is forever mankind.
i have understanding (after covid and an innumerable number of hoaxes) for those who say the moon landing was a hoax.. but my retort is “there’s no way you could fool hundreds of engineers working on such a project.. there’s just no way..”
Exactly David WS. Same with the chem-trail people … How many airplane mechanics would have to be complicit?!?
I’ve said the same thing to a co-worker, a 45 yr. old, regarding that there’s no way that so many engineers could keep that secret for so long.
I told him; Yeah your right. It was all a marketing scam to sell Tang.
Tang?
He wondered what the acronym stood for.
I laughed and walked away.
There are videos covering the Moon landing hoax assertions. For those who are interested the VFX people at the Corridor Crew YouTube Channel did a show on the moon footage. “VFX Artists React to the Moon Landing;”

They directly compared the moon footage with the 2001 special effects shots and pointed out the differences.

NVIDIA has also done a video “Debunking Lunar Landing Conspiracies with Maxwell and VXGI”

Tim Dodd has a YouTube channel Everyday Astronaut. He did a long detailed presentation about the Moon mission “The Truth About The Moon Landings” It has timestamps of the topics covered.

There is an interesting video debunking the moon hoax on YouTube where a filmmaker goes into what it would have taken to attempt to fake the moon landings. “Moon Landings Faked? Filmmaker Says Not!” The technology back then was nothing like what we have available today.

Definitive proof that the moon landing was faked!
