That’s right kids, the whole thing was a huge hoax… now someone just needs to explain how you can see all the stuff they left behind on the moon through a telescope.
If this is in space then how come there are still monkeys?

Every single event that you haven’t personally witnessed could be staged, fake and so on. Even the ones you did attend could be staged. It’s a question of how far does your scepticism go. Theoretically it could have been easily staged. I mean really, how many people on here have ever been in space. Personally I have seen only a couple planets and for all I know every telescope I’ve used could have had a screen built in that showed me fake planets. Or if I were to be more realistic I would have to say that based on my perception nothing beyond a certain point in the sky exists to me, I have never touched, seen or heard anything beyond that point. Of course I have never been to Peru either so that could mean entire continents are made up too. Back to the moon, aside from not having been there or having watched the rocket with little Armstrong take off in person, I have never talked to any astronaut, anyone who was there when it happened or anyone on the team that made it happen. I rely completely on books and things I’ve seen on TV. Based on that alone, is it reasonable to doubt it happened? Yeah of course. This is the same scepticism an atheist uses when doubting a theist who tells him there is a hell. Or a guy who doubts his slutty girlfriend is really pregnant with his baby. Although one thing the last two examples have in common is that there is an apparent motive, does the theist get anything out of making the atheist believe there is a hell? Sure, he can manipulate him in unimaginable ways if he does. Does the girl get anything out of making the guy believe it’s his baby? Yeah, he’ll support it as if it were his own. So what is the motive for faking a trip to the moon. Just to make your scientists seem clever and skilled? If it really was staged, there has to be a reason that would be worth all the effort someone would have to put into faking it otherwise it’s not a reasonable assumption no matter how much scepticism you got in your pockets. Assuming those people on TV really exist, wouldn’t it be tremendously difficult to make them all keep the same secret. Humans are not exactly the most trustworthy creatures.
shadow angle fail
look at his shadow and the shadow next to him of that pole/antenna thing
source of light should be the Sun
OMG CONSPIRACIES
its a slanted antenna
Except the shadows on some of the “rocks” are also going at different angles to the light source.
If it’s in space, where are the stars in the background?
the sun is behind him. you dont think that there might be a little light pollution from that?
that’s crazy. look at the rocks on the top right quadrant of the picture. some of the shadows are actually at right angles to shadows of the astronaut
Mythbusters already did this.
Cheese.
