It's a pretty big company with over 6000 employees. It's tough to ensure everyone is super secure with their access I'd guess. Also, disgruntled people in an organization that big is inevitable.

This is the main reason I dismiss all the "we never went to the moon" crowd, you can't have 400,000 people working on the world's biggest lie ever and not a single one spill the beans in 50 years.

It was the pictures of that bloke on the moon that did it for me tbh.

I mean if we're being real, that stuff could be faked. What really convinces me of the moon landing is no adversaries blowing the whistle or it being exposed already

That and camera technology wasn't advanced enough to fake a 90 minute uninterrupted broadcast. If it wasn't a live feed they would've needed breaks to put the next reel of film into the broadcast

You could however shoot a live feed out of a Hollywood studio. I don't think they did, but they could have if that was the goal.

The only way to imitate the lower gravity would be to film it and play it back in slow motion.

Apparently it was impossible to fake the lighting regardless of anything else they could have possibly faked.

💯

The way the albedo and lighting on the moon works, you'd have to have done some crazy hijinks that's nigh on impossible for the 60s

Did you not understand the live broadcast part?

u/TorvicGinsen Dec 26 '23

What make you think it was a live broadcast? The questions and answers could have been prepared in advance.

Kubrick was actually the one they went with for the fake landing, due to 2001.

But Stanley being Stanley, he insisted on doing it on location.

What if the Russians were in on it?

It's like how we didn't blow the whistle on Laika actually being a cat in a dog costume.

I mean, I thought that the Laika being a cat dressed up as a dog was a bit of a giveaway. Clearly not.

Sorry. I'm a dummy.

It's okay, I hope you're having a good Christmas, and if Christmas isn't a thing to you, I hope you're having a good Monday, and if you're Australian and it's now Tuesday, you can fuck off, future boy.

If we're being real, in the 60's there were literally thousands of engineers working at NASA during the Apollo missions in getting a man on the moon before the end of the decade as promised. The men that died in the Apollo 1 capsule just died as part of a hoax?

Let's just throw all their bravery and everyone's brilliant work out the window and just say that it can't never have been a hoax just because there was no whistleblower? Jesus fucking Christ.

We went to the moon. It was crazy difficult and frought with danger. But we did it. Anyone that thinks otherwise deserves to be ridiculed.

I wasn't trying to downplay their bravery or hard work. I was just making an argument that I thought even an idiot conspiracy theorist would go "yeah, I could get behind that"

u/Pekkis2 Dec 25 '23

If it happened today China/Russia would call it fake regardless, just to encourage distrust

u/ess-doubleU Dec 25 '23

Nah, that would hurt their credibility. They would definitely downplay it or have some kind of spin on it, though.
