I guess there's going to be an hour's worth of lies and fake footage on tonight about the Apollo mission and other NASA hoaxes. 10pm Discovery HD.

Are they proving the hoaxes are false or that going to the moon was false?

Are you kidding me?! We have GPS based on hundreds of satellites that can place you within feet and a mile an hour of speed, instant communications bounced off thousands of satellites, people living in orbit for months at a time, private enterprise routinely making microgravity flights and preparing to launch a space hotel, cars that navigate using lasers and radar and sonar, aircraft that fly at 2x the speed of sound, and a few that fly at mach 3+, and remote craft that can do mach 10+, and others that can splatter an enemy with no human onboard. How is it remotely possible that we haven't put people on our closest celestial neighbor? I could put something into orbit from my backyard if I had the right books and enough time/money.

I hope you know that I'm kidding about the our going to the moon being a hoax. There's a mountain of evidence supporting the idea that we went and zero hard evidence that we didn't. What really blows my mind is the fact that a decent percentage of people that believe we didn't go are religious... If there was even 50% the amount of evidence for the existence of God as there is for the moon landing, everyone would be christian!
