What reason does it have to be afraid? The visitors' bark is worse than their bite.

Maybe the local volunteers could have a little more docency, however.

It’s a grand conspiracy I tell you! So devious and clever that NASA even got the USSR to cooperate!! Because the USSRs Sputniks were fake too! It’s all fake! I read it in the World Weekly News!!

Sort of like in the Middle Ages everybody had a relic that was a “splinter of the true cross”. If you added them all up they would make a forest.

One would think the museum would have taken a microscopic view of the sample. One can visualize cell structures in petrified wood.

“ I do question many things we were told that summer day in 1969.”

I’ll skip over hundreds of other ways to debunk what you just said .
But you know the Russians were able to monitor anything we sent into space back the ,that can’t be argued.
Don’t you think they would have called us out if we actually didn’t go?
Of course they would have!!!

Donald Trump is being subjected to a series of Stalinist show-trials.

The Democrats are succeeding in Communizing and Sodomizing society.

And suddenly, a couple of cranks drag out the old, tired, thoroughly refuted anti-American nonsense about the Apollo program.

They’re trolls, trying to hide the Democrats’ criminal conduct.

Perhaps something would be gained by the Russians if they didn’t call us out. Not money, but technology, or unobstructed access to certain territories.

“ Perhaps something would be gained by the Russians if they didn’t call us out. ”

No.
It was a matter of huge pride for both nations.
Had we not really gone; they would have been all like Hunter Biden chasing a bribe.

I guess the Soviets must have been secret best buddies with the Americans too! My goodness. What craziness. At least most in that thread are disagreeing.

Thanks for discussing this calmly. After all this time, it’s still a red hot button issue.

> The moon is made out of wood?

Yes. And so, then if the moon rock weighs as much as a duck, it's a witch.

Some people still don’t fully believe we went to the Moon. I am among them. I used to think it was preposterous, outrageously offensive ‘as an American’ to hear someone even bring up the topic as a serious discussion.

I could describe myself the same way. Especially after finding out we “lost” the technology to return. What?

I think I read that somewhere just yesterday.
I kept thinking “I must be mis-reading some part of it.
This couldn’t possibly be as bad it sounds. Right?”
So I moved onto something else.

Breathtaking incompetence and disorganization.
“F-Troop”!
