Point #1:

The single biggest argument that moon landing believers bring out against moon landing deniers is that it would be too much of a secret to keep hidden for all these years.

To fake a moon landing, you’d need 400,000 conspirators

My reply to that is that we already have historical proof that keeping a large scale secret is possible. We did this already with the Manhattan Project. The Manhattan Project employed nearly 130,000 people at its peak. That was kept secret.

Someone is going to point out that 400,000 is more than 130,000 and the length of time is longer. The length of time is longer because we dropped the bombs on Japan and let the secrets out. Also, anytime you do something you gain experience. The government gained experience with the secrecy regarding the Manhattan Project and then expanded upon it with the moon landing.

Point #2:

There has never been a single spot on the Earth that we have explored and then walked away from to never return. North Pole, South Pole, Marianas Trench…when we discover something we return. We landed on the Moon 55 years ago, supposedly did a few more landings until 1972, and then never went back. That’s after 52 years of technological improvements. It’s absurd! Imagine if someone told you that Europeans never went back to the New World after Columbus.

We should have the Moon setup like it was in the Sam Rockwell movie: Moon by now.

Conclusion:

I believe the moon landing was faked.

I like the Kubrick conspiracy

    You mean the project where the only reason there was any secrecy was that none of the people had any part of the wide reaching project (Oppenheimer, Einstein, and all the others were pretty much kept way away from eachother) and was almost brought down as a secret in the group by one of the guys being an amateur safe cracker? That Manhattan Project?

    The one where everybody near Los Alamos knew that something big was happening, because they were actively hiring during the War?

    The one that had so many close calls to they’re working on some kind of bomb that by the time the war was over you had people involved blabbing, to the point the Rosenbergs happened?

    The Manhattan project, the one that the editor of a science fiction magazine (I think it was Astounding) figured out was happening because all the physicists who subscribed suddenly changed their addresses to Los Alamos?

    We’re talking about the Manhattan project that Kodak had clearance to know about (and even got advanced warnings about tests) because they figured it out when radioactive fallout from the tests contaminated their x-ray film? That one?

    Or are we talking about the manhattan project that the soviets got wind of before the FBI even knew, thieved all the technical data and that’s why they had nuclear weaponry four years after the US?
