post #34 Sure, photos were touched up for publication. Still are. If something important is being airbrushed out, the scam will be over if anybody ever goes back to the site in person. No, I don't think NASA would be so shortsighted as to try to scam the public on this.
The reason we didn't continue going to the moon is that there is no water, or none known at that time. Now there is the possibility of some, not a lot of water, just a few gallons here and there around the pole.

THAT sounds like a pretty strongly faith based conviction. You have faith that NASA wouldn't do such a dastardly thing because they are so nice or patriotic or lack such stupidity or some such.

And the gov has been dastardly in a long list of ways as most anyone working for it very long in any serious role would probably attest.
Once CINCPAC last minute vetoed a seal team blowing up a French merchant ship in Hanoi? harbor to make it look like North Vietnamese to give us a pretext of bombing Hanoi. I'm sure the list is endless. Guess I don't have much faith at all that NASA would avoid sealing whatever the powers that be told them to.
