So tell me again, what is the reason that we can't photograph the U.S.flag on the moon?

What would be the point?

Finding a needle in a haystack is easy if you use a match to look for it.

To prove it is actually there, some people believe that the moon landings were faked.

Well,

A.) Those people are dumb, and should not be pandered to; and

B.) If they went to all the trouble of faking a multibillion dollar project using 1960s technology, why wouldn't they be able to generate a couple of fake photographs using 21st century photo editing software? In other words, any such pics would be dismissed as fakes by the aforementioned dumb people.

We spent millions of tax dollars to find.............garbage on Mars?....

The government has so much money that they spend it on stuff liike this and bridges to no-place in Alaska. (rather than reducing the amount taxed - after all they know what best for us, and pictures of space junk are definitely worth more to us than things like food, fuel, etc. We just don't appreciate the value)

I beg to differ. There are some intelligent people who believe the moon landings to be fake. To just dismiss them as dumb is the same arguments that are used against those who believe in creationism.

Yeah, I dunno.

People believe all sorts of different things, go figure.

With all due respect, I'm with the other poster... people who believe the moon landings were faked are kooks.. sometimes you just gotta draw the line and make a judgement call.
