with all the people involved in NASA, anyone who does budget or expense work in the government, plus congress and the senate, it would probably cost more to lie about a moon landing then to actually land on the moon.

One more thing... people talk about the how the flag is waving (and how its impossible since theres no wind on the moon)... it was waving because of the supporting bar at the top of it... To hold the flag out so that it was completely visible a supporting bar was required to go across the top... this bar would be swung out when the flag was opened up... the picture was taken just after the bar was raised, the raising of which caused the ripples in it...

There's an atmosphere on the moon, thus there might be wind. I'm sure that "reason" was made up by some asshole who never went to the moon. There are also such things as solar winds, so science has led me to believe. I feel fairly confident in presuming that a flag could wave on the moon, but then again... I've never been there.

yea, the waving is from the vibrations in the pole. the astronaut touched the pole just before it was in the shot.

Solar wind... i thouyght that was the UV rays pulled by gravity... and not wind as we know it on earth...

If I were a scientist, I'd not be on PSU. I'd be inventing superman potions so I could kick G'ds ass for putting me on a planet filled with asshats, megalomaniacs, genocidal despots, and the Olsen twins.

No wind, but inertia would cause the flag to "wave" sort of, even in space, but there's also gravity on the moon, so the flag would do that if it was turned. Because of the lack of atmosphere, vibrations would have little to impede them also.

This will scientificly explain and debunk almost all theories that suggest we did not go to the moon.

I am betting on one of the Olsen Twins.

i'm convinced that we never landed on the moon.

also, the Holocaust never happened.

WWI was a farce.

Australia doesn't really exist.

and My Uncle Mike is the real president of the united states. This "Bush" character is a kind of stand-in placed in office by the the organization known as the Last Patriots. Free your mind.

Wake up Neo.
The Bullshit has you.
Follow the white rabbit. moron.
