[For all of us who believe the moon landing to be fiction this just lends more credence to the conspiracy theory. This and the first ever interview with Neil Armstrong on 60 minutes a couple weeks ago. No wonder he doesn't get interviewed about the moon landing. He had absolutely nothing of substance to relate. You would think that someone who had walked on the moon would be dying to give interviews. Not so with all those who say they walked on the moon.]



All of the astronauts who walked on the moon give interviews all the time, including Neil Armstrong. I don't know where you got the idea that they don't, but I've seen, heard and read many of them.

Armstrong has a well deserved reputation for being a very uninteresting interview, however, as he has an almost robotic personality and shows little emotion or enthusiasm for anything, but that's just his character.

Anyone who thinks that the moon landings were a hoax needs to explain how the literally thousands of people directly involved in its success would stick to the lie for decades without ONE of them spilling the beans. It's not plausible to believe a conspiracy of this magnitude could exist and the astronauts, engineers and physicists who vouch for its authenticity is compelling.

True. It is also one of the things that made him a very good astronaut. His coolheaded response to the Gemini 8 spin accident outside of radio range is what earned him the commander's seat to Apollo 11.

Why would anyone disbelieve the moon landings? I wasn't alive at the time. HOWEVER, I have seen - twice, in person - the 747 with the shuttle on top fly over: once over my school in Seabrook, Texas, and once over my house in Burlington, Washington, in 1986.

If we have a real shuttle that can launch into orbit, with all the complexity that entails, why could we not send a man to the moon?

Yeah interview. One in 30 years and it stunk. CBS played the interview just like they played the public with Cronkite doing the feeding.

LOL, but you see, there were only 2 people in the "control room", and they replicated them with mirrors! Or was it photoshop...? Doesn't matter, you can tell they're all the same, they all look like dorks w/ slide rules!

All the proof I'd ever need was that Uncle Walter would never have gone along with such U.S. Government deception...
