I have always heard a certain amount of people have believed the moon landing to be faked. But here is an interesting link that details the real composition of a moon rock. I am thinking otherwise now.
Dutch museum says 'moon rock' worthless wood - Yahoo! News
It's been a big conspiracy since then >.< lots of very true insights about it.. people claim the film was taken in the studio rather than on the moon's surface... but I don't know.. this thing have passed and I rather let it be...

But on the other hand, the actual Lunar landing sites have been photographed from orbit...
NASA - LRO Sees Apollo Landing Sites
Plus the laser reflectors left at the Apollo landing sites still work, and anyone with a powerful enough laser and sensitive enough detection equipment can detect them. Regular monitoring of the laser reflectors has shown that since the lunar landings, the moon is a full 15 Meters further away due to the effects of tidal drag...
Obviously people have been to the moon, we know that, but what I am wondering now is did we go when we say we did. Honestly I still think that it was real but I don't know with this piece of contraditory evidence. It seems wierd.

Though a fraudulent 'moon rock', considering its rarity and value, is not surprising, and has occurred in the past. Fake 'Diamonds' are much more common, but get no were the amount of press and publicity...
I completely belive the moon landing was real, even without proof. The Third Reich may have even been playing with ideas of puting men into space, so twenty years later, they definitly had the tech they needed.
A lot of people are angry with NASA, because they had the technology and volonteers in the early 70's to go to mars, but never did. (My father is one of these people. however, i don't think it would have been a good idea to send people to mars 30-some years ago. there are new problems we have just discovered about the trip that would have been very unfortunate to the pioneers then.)
As far as conspiracy theories go, the only one I agree with is that we knew the Japanese Navy was comming for us at Pearl Harbor. but that's another story.

I often joke about the moon landing being fake but, I know that's not the case. I accept the US's first moon landing as fact, not fiction. Given the technology way back when, I could understand why lots of people believe it to be fake but there's no way we can prove it was fake.
That cracks me up!! Here's a bit of info, if anyone is interested:Quote:

breif synopsis- A Manned mission to mars screws up, so the governmoent covered it up and faked a sucessful landing.
