Moon Landing: Fake or Real?

Spending the time and money to do something you already did 45 years ago just to try and convince a few people isn't worth it. No doubt even with modern technology and tracking, there would still be people who claim it was a setup.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Like you said, doing it today wouldn't prove anything to those who are determined to find conspriacy.

It seems to me that the one Nation that would have had a vested interest in proving the moon landings were fake is the former USSR or today, Russia. If there were any real evidence that the landings were fake they would have been all over it like a rash. But, being one of the only other nations to land a vehicle on the moon (although not any people), they would be in the best position to argue against the evidence, which they don't seem to have ever done. If the moon landings were/are a conspiracy then the Ruskies seem to be in on it and must have been during the cold war... which is a whole other conspiracy <cue 'Twilight Zone' theme>. MM

"I think I use the term “radical” rather loosely, just for emphasis. If you describe yourself as “atheist,” some people will say, “Don’t you mean ‘agnostic’?” I have to reply that I really do mean atheist, I really do not believe that there is a god; in fact, I am convinced that there is not a god (a subtle difference). I see not a shred of evidence to suggest that there is one ... etc., etc. It’s easier to say that I am a radical atheist, just to signal that I really mean it, have thought about it a great deal, and that it’s an opinion I hold seriously." - Douglas Adams (and I echo the sentiment)

Not only were the moon landings faked, the so-called "moon" is obviously a liberal myth.
Now excuse me while I go take my anti-psychotics.
