Did NASA really land on the moon?

The first manned landing on the moon was achieved by the U.S on July 20, 1969. There were five other manned landings up until 1972. To this date, the U.S is the only country known to have successfully landed on the moon. This leads to a question that has yet to be answered: How did they manage to do it despite the fact that the Soviets had a far more superior space program? Prior to the moon landings, the Soviets beat them to everything related to space exploration. Yet, for some reason, NASA managed to beat the USSR to the moon in just a few years time. After the last manned mission in 1972, there were no more planned trips to the moon. Many skeptics would say this is because the whole fabricated notion of going to the moon already served its true purpose. However, one would say the main reason is because it is impossible for astronauts to get past the magnetic fields due to high radiation. If this wasn't the case, then not only would NASA be going to the moon in present time (perhaps even building space stations), but the Soviet Union would most likely have beaten the US to the moon. The ones who defend NASA claim there is empirical evidence available to the public. Anyone on Earth with an appropriate laser and telescope system can bounce laser beams off three retroreflector arrays left on the Moon by Apollo 11 14 and 15, verifying deployment of the Lunar Laser Ranging Experiment at historically documented Apollo Moon landing sites (Wiki). The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter also brought back photos of the alledged landing sites. --------------------------------- The distance it takes to get to the moon is a quarter million miles, going round trip means that the crew are traveling half a million miles. That seems farfetched considering the technology available back then. The empirical evidence provided by the defenders of NASA isn't enough to convince me that they actually went to the moon. How did they get past the radiation without being severely injured or dead? How did their technology allow them to explore the harsh environment of the moon? In the sunlight, the temperatures rise significantly high while under the shade, significantly low. The astronaught being interviewed in a documentary said their suits were battery powered (along with just about everything else). I just can't imagine battery technology being that advanced in late 60's to survive 3 days on the moon. We're just now getting decent electric cars. Anyways, what do you think? Are the moon landings a hoax?

Do you think the moon landings were faked?

Given what they had to do up to this point in order to even get past the belts this time, I don't see how they managed to do it back then.

They had to install shielding and test it. Doesn't sound like too much to do, now or then.

And that's enough troll-feeding for me, maybe someone else can pick up after me and Char now.

Hey I didn't read anything in this thread but anyone have any loose change?

Well, let's just agree to disagree. You think the shielding back then was significantly good enough to get past the belts and I don't think they were. That's all there is to it really.

We landed on the moon....once. That is all to it. So lets fire more rockets at the moon.
