NASA ZOTTED the moon landings - Conclusive Proof

NASA Fakes Moon Landing!
Heroic images or NASA fraud? At last we have the conclusive proof! The image on the left clearly shows the supposed 25,000 of thrust generated by the lunar lander to arrest its descent. Yet in the image on the right, where is the giant crater this would have created? Looks like the complex web of NASA lies is about to unravel!
	Another apparently inspirational image from the NASA archive. All seems fine at first but notice the numerous directions in which the shadows are falling (marked with arrows). This indicates that the image is probably coposed of several images taken at different times (probably in a top secret studio guarded by specially trained aliens working as government agents) and joined together using advanced technology NASA always denies existed at the time. This is the photographic equivalent of an automotive "cut-and-shut" job. If this image was your car, you wouldn't trust it to take you to the end of your road without breaking in half!
	Not much wrong with this picture you may think. Yet, by thinking that, you would just become yet another of NASA's conspiracy victims. Firstly, despite the absence of an atmosphere, no stars can be seen in the sky. Secondly, the interior of the shopping basket can clearly be seen when all areas in shadow should be pitch black due to the absence of air molecules. Nice try NASA but we are not fooled that easily!
	Just way too many things wrong with this picture! Notice the absence of stars again. The arrows indicate the various directions in which shadows are falling, again showing evidence of inconsistent scene illumination. Yet there is something even more obviously wrong with this picture. If the length of the lower support column of the lunar lander was 4 feet tall, this would indicate that the astronaut was over 8 feet tall, which none of the astronauts were. Another careless mistake from NASA.
	Oh yes NASA, it's all very well adding stars on this picture just to make us realise how wrong we have been. We are not fooled so easily! If we look a bit more closely, we spot the constellation of Pegasus with the planet Saturn (marked S1) clearly visible in the top left corner. Yet at the time of the mission, although Saturn appeared to be near Pegasus from Earth, from the Moon it would have appeared to be in a completely different position (marked S2). It is almost insulting to think that NASA could get away with this obvious howler!
	Well, with this image where does one begin?! Inconsistent shadows, too much ambient light and incorrect planetary positioning in the sky are all evident here. Also notice how the focal length of the camera lens has changed compared to the pictures above, even though the astronauts' Hasselblad cameras were only fitted with a single type of prime lens. Just how stupid did the NASA officials think the public were?

[irishtenor]

Ha! Very funny. Loved it. Especially the first picture. If it is a picture of them landing... WHO TOOK IT!

Hilarious!

After the Moon Landing, I had an old-timer say to me,
"They didn't go to no moon! They went out behind a mountain in Arizona & filmed it."
( How do you get behind a mountain? )

[Constitutionalist Conservative]

I thought this was quite amusing as a parody of conspiracy theories. There was no way that he expected anyone to take this seriously. How does any of this make Suggs a troll? (Unless the mods have some inside info about who our newbie is, of course)

[Publius6961]

Damn!
I never knew the moon was only about 50 feet in diameter...

[RippleFire]

I agree - it seems to be merely satire and quite a bit funnier than the average vanity.

[Not A Snowbird]

Too much time on your hands?

[MeekOneGOP]

Yeah, I thought about that too. I figure he was a retread Troll.

[SolidRedState]

That's funny. Too bad it was ZOTTED.

The other day I saw a stray cat about a mile from my house that looked just like her. I knew that there was no way she could have gotten out, but I stopped and called for her just to be sure. The call -- TREATS!

[Conservative Texan Mom]

Hilarious!!!!!! At first I thought you were an idiot, then I saw the pictures. It took them a while to download. Funny stuff!

[Old Sarge]

HIlarious parody. Pity the troll bought it.

[King Prout]

BWAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

[Rebelbase]

You are such a dork. We already broke the story a couple of years ago using this video clip: http://www.eatmail.tv/emadmin/emlinks/moontruth.mpg

[Dr.Hilarious]

Interesting photos from the recent DNC picnic, but I don't see the connection with NASA.

[grellis]

I thought the pictures were hilarious. Either it is a retread troll or the forum has gone mentally trigger happy.

[processing please hold]

Is this from the same people who are card carrying members of the flat earth society?

[phoenix0468]

It's too bad when humor is considered reason for a Zot. I assume this poster was doing more than just posting humorous pictures?
