Thanks for the link, John (that's my local uni)! However, it doesn't discuss the Unified S-Band system that was utilized during Apollo. For a very thorough treatment of USB, you can't beat this:

Or, a more concise description of the system:

Very interesting I always wondered how that worked, I have to say it's a nice theory that we never went to the moon, but really John I am amazed that you are a part believer!
All this stuff about registration marks on the photos and no stars in the shots plus the people that say why is there no flame? just make me laugh they have no understanding of science at all.
The video camera was interesting to me as it was one I could never explain until now, Thanks Ian good job

Great, Ian!! Thanks for this.
I find it so strange we have to spend time proving such things. It's like proving that 2 + 2 is 4...But since hoaxes seem to be fashonable....It's great someone knowledgeable can explain the truth. Sometimes people presenting hoaxes can be so convincing that it is easy to fall in their traps...Strange though how some people will use so much of their time to make up such stories.....Your analysis in the other thread is very enlightening.

Now if you want a conspiracy theory how about this... Two computers have been stolen from the police officers investigating Princess Diana's death, the police claim nothing sensitive was on the machines, however two seperate burglers took the machines and some cash!
Hmmmmm. cover up from on high? or coincidence!

it's better than all those Q+PR should they / shouldn't they discussions... ;)
I personally don't really care whether they landed there or not. I am / was sceptical and am not ashamed of that. I can find even on this board people more ignorant than me- there are more obvious things than this moon landing people can't grasp... and I don't mind reading about it. At the end of the day- I couldn't really care less whethet someone did land on th emoon or not. Therefore I don't have a problem with discussion like that. It's not going to harm anybody, that's for sure. And... well, ;let's read few threads from the top in other sections, shall we?
"Why didn't Freddie ever get a double chin"
"You Take My Breath Away: it isn't about a love for a person"
"Brian and Roger are ruining PAUL RODGERS"
"Paul Weller slags off Freddie Mercury"
"Want to see Dackys balls?"
I dunno- for me proving that 2+2 isn't such a bad thread to read afterall... Especially as I am at work and EXTREMELY bored...

Well Fenderek, considering that it was basically me who started this discussion, by comparing the idea behind Farenheit 911 with the moon landings, you're addressing your post to the wrong person!
I thanked Ian for his clarifications because he's helping clear things up. I just meant it's weird so many strange theories are spread...But I like these threads, so that the obvious can be revealed....
I don't know why you don't care if we landed on the moon or not...but I do care! So thanks again to Ian for the evidence.

BTW what's so wrong with those threads on Queen and PR? I'd think it's a perfect topic for a Queen forum.

I don't care because... either way it's not going to have ANY difference on my life. whether they landed or not... Does it change anything in my life? Not really... If it was a hoax- would it change anyting? Not really? It's far, faaaar on the list of things to care about for me... Landed? Fine. Hoax? No difference really...

Yes it would have an impact, if they didn't land on the moon, then nations would never have invested millions into space research, and the vast majority of that money would have gone elsewhere.
Also the cold war would have been very different if the USSR had got there first, they basically gave up on the moon once they discovered how far ahead the US was, up to that point it could have gone either way.
1969 changed all our lives, whether we were born at that point or not.

I agree. Also, for me it has a very important emotional impact. I'm a big fan of space exploration, astronomy and all that goes with it. And I love to think that those missions have prepared for future explorations of other planets, and who knows where science will take us.

Have you ever heard of the guy named Yuri Gagarin, the world's first artificial satellite "Sputnik", of the woman Valentina Tereshkova, of space station "Mir"? Or studying of space exists only inside problem "Who was first on the Moon"?
