The Moon Landing Was Not faked

The moon landing took place july 16th, 1969. Despite it all being aired from space for

everyone to view, ,many refuse to believe it is real and question all credibility of Nasa and the

government. But why is this? There are plenty of reasons as to why the landing may appear

fake, such as the camera perspective but it is easy to explain. Because of The perspective of

the camera the parallel lines appear non-parallel, but if you try to reduce a Two-dimensional

plane into a three-dimensional situation you get all sorts of strange lines. Artists have used this

technique for centuries.

Why are there so many people under the impression that the moon landing was staged? Even

with the visual proof of footprints still shown to this day and show that man really did travel

there. With no wind to blow any evidence away all the proof lies there. The moon landing was

all CGI, there are many glitching and filming errors to Prove, while there were many filming

errors this simply isn’t the case, CGI in 1969 was not advanced enough to have faked it. The

the camera for Apollo 8 only produces 10 frames per second, which is why it seems so choppy

and almost animated. Though the technology from 1969 was not advanced enough it’s so easy

for us now with the given technology to believe that Hollywood could have faked it all with
Nasa. Truth is we didn’t have the right equipment To have done that.

But how was the moon landing filmed and aired from space? The film devices used in Apollo 8

was made of a 7.25 camera that converts light into electrical signals that are then amplified

hundreds of times before finally being converted back into visible images. There are plenty

reasons as to why the moon landing may appear fake, such as the camera perspective but it is

easy to explain. Because of the perspective of the camera the parallel lines appear non-parallel,

but if you try to reduce a two-dimensional plane into a three-dimensional situation you get all

sorts of strange lines. Artists have used this technique for centuries. Since many of the foot

Prints from that day are still visible in 2009 we sent a lunar reconnaissance orbiter to map the

Lunar surface and there it was seen that all prints were still there.

The Moon Landing Was Real And Aired From Space.

The moon landing was fully aired from space but in order to have done this scientists invented

The film devices at a Westinghouse research laboratory in Pittsburgh. They installed a 7.25

Pound camera, along with SEC tubes that amplified hundreds of times before being converted

Back into visible images. With this in mind it shows why there was so many sketchy and

Choppy. There was also a third key element that was used which was a 85-foot S-band radar

That received antennas spaced 120 degrees apart around the globe so that it had a “moon view”

At all times. As shown in the many videos filmed from the moon they have a almost fisheye

Lens and view. There also was scan conversion equipment was installed in Gold Stone Madrid
 This is because in Gold Stone they use this equipment to convert signals through a regular

Coaxial cable channels to mission control in Houston, TX. From there the broadcasts are
Distributed through conventional channels across America. To this day Nasa uses similar

channels to broadcast from space.

The Shadows And Strange Filming Errors

The film from the moon had many odd angles because of the perspective. In outer space

the parallel lines will appear non-parallel because if you try to reduce the perspective onto a two

dimensional plane with a three dimensional situation you can make lines do all sorts of strange

Things along with giving the point of view strange angles. If you were to go outside when the

Sun begins to set, and you can see this strange perspective yourself. Just like the images

From Apollo 11, the shadows will not be parallel. Almost all images taken on the moon appear

To never be parallel. Many people also began to wonder how the photos were taken with no

Stars appeared in the background. Well it’s simply really, if you take a photo of a brightly lit

Your camera shutter speed needs to be fast and your aperture incredibly small. In that

Situation faint objects like stars will not show.

CGI And Technology From 1969 Couldn’t Have Faked The Landing.

In our times of advanced technology and CGI it’s easy for us to believe that hollywood

Could have orchestrated the whole thing with the help of Nasa to create a credible moon landing
But the truth is that the technology back then was capable of doing that. Many movies from the

the 60's and 70’s with CGI didn't exist. The camera system that was designed for Apollo 8

produces one 10 frames per second and is only made up of 320 lines not like commercial tv’s

And is very prone to quickly which was why so many clips seemed janky. Most of the cameras

Or filming softwares from back then was far from advanced, which is also why to us to seems so
Poorly filmed.

Items Brought Back To Earth From The Moon And Evidence Of Human LIfe.

In 2009 we sent out a lunar reconnaissance orbiter to map the lunar surface in three or four

orders of magnitude and more resolution that had ever been managed before in the images that

were brought back, you can see all the footprints from apollo 8 still to this day. Later on Apollo

11 astronauts brought back the first ever geologic samples from the moon back to earth.

Astronauts collected approximately 21.6 kilograms of material, including 50 rocks samples of

The fine grained lunar regolith or “soil” and two core tubes that included material from up to

13cm below the moon's surface. Therefore they use this to study more of the moon's surface.

The overall lunar samples collected during the Apollo program is classified into three rock types

, Basalts, Breccias, and lunar highland rocks. However small but important fragments of the

Moons' highland crust were found in Apollo 11 as well and were interpreted as evidence for an

Early “magma ocean’ on the moon. This was one of the major scientific findings of Apollo 11.

In conclusion, with all the given evidence to debunk every conspiracy theory known
With information given by scientists and researchers. We should educate ourselves more on

What actually goes into getting to the moon. Without this information we would be clueless

And believe every lying conspiracy given, people will begin to doubt science and Nasa and their

Many soon to come projects. With all the equipment used for the moon landing were easily able

To explain how all the films were taken. As more experts, scientists and researchers come

forward, they are able to help explain and debunk false information to gain more trust for Nasa.
Many of our equipment to this day can still prove all left foot prints and proven life on the moon

Plenty of conspiracy theories begin to claim the moon landing was staged but with plenty of

Poof that’s been gathered over the years has been able to easily debunk all rumors and claims

Made.

Many can say the moon landing is faked and make Nasa and others look

To be no longer trusting, but as said from Neil Armstrong “ That’s one small step for man. One

Giant leap for mankind” - Neil Armstrong. With this giant leap for mankind let’s make a change

To put trust in others.
