Was the Moon Landing Faked !!

President Kennedy set a challenge in 1961 for the USA to put a man on the Moon by the end of the decade. The fact that they managed this, is one of the greatest feats of mankind. Conspiracy theorists, however, claim that the USA did not actually put men on the Moon at all: they claim the entire mission was faked to affirm the USA's lead in the space race.

The critical question is: why would the USA risk its reputation by perpetrating a hoax that would be incredibly difficult to pull off?

The Soviet Union would have had the most to gain from exposing the hoax. With their involvement in the space race, they would be the best qualified to spot any cheating going on. Why then, with more motivation than anyone to expose a hoax, did they remain silent? The truth is that the USSR tracked the Americans all the way to the Moon and back. They had no doubt that the mission was successful.

There were six Apollo missions between 1969 and 1972, landing a total of twelve astronauts on to the lunar surface. If NASA had managed to pull off this hoax, why did they feel the need to carry out a further five hoax missions, each one increasing the likelihood of exposure?
Conspiracy theorists have a multitude of hypotheses regarding the "official" version of events, most conspiracies revolving around the Apollo 11 mission which first placed a man on the Moon. Here we will look at some of the more popular ones and offer explanations as to why they are not valid.

Apollo 11 Mission

Apollo 11 mission was the first manned mission to land the man on the moon.It was the successfull mission led by the crew consisiting of Neil Alden Armstrong(Mission Commander),Micheal Collins (Command Module Pilot),Edwin buzz Aldrin(Lunar Module Pilot).It was launched on 16th July of 1969. On July 20th Neil Armstrong and Aldrin became the first ever men to land on the moon -:)

Apollo 11 mission was the fifth human spaceflight of project Apollo and the third human voyage to the Moon /Moon Orbit. This mission fullfilled the president John Kennedy's goal of reaching the moon by the end of the 1960's which he had expressed during the speech delivered on may 25th 1961. His statement was like "I believe this nation would commit itself to acheiving the goal of landing a man on the moon and returning him safe to the earth before the end of this decade "
