Or what they said was the landing. Wind flapping the flag? Please!
Ya, I'm really on the fense about that. Not educated on space enough to know what to think, but if I had to choose I'd say I lean toward it was all faked.
OMG, would Percy love the direction of this thread. The flag waves because the moon has very little gravity and when they shimmied it into the surface, it waved like any flag would and stayed up for awhile due to the limited gravity.
As for JMark shadow comment, I don't think that is a shadow but is a trough of carved out lunar surface.
I guess I am one who believes the rocks we brought back are real

just have to watch the mythbusters episode on the subject and that's all you need. completely debunks any of the conspiracy theories or thoughts why the moon landing could be fake. besides the fact we have pictures of all of the landers in the last few years and dozens of times people have reflected lasers from things set up on the surface for just that purpose.
i was going to put the ua/asu records here...but i forgot what they were.
