2009 Fake Moon Landing Anniversary: Remake Announced |

NASA has announced plans to stage an elaborate recreation of the historic first moon landing in 1969. Speaking from the Kennedy Space Center, a senior spokesperson has revealed that the agency plans to "go all-out this time".
NASA has come under public scrutiny recently following National Geographic documentaries that prove that the protective carbon layers on the Space Shuttle are "about as useful as a one-legged man in an ass-kicking contest". Insiders claim that a fresh PR campaign from the space research body is long overdue. The recent boost of funding from the federal government to facilitate the moon landing recreation is regarded by experts as the first wave of a wider public relations initiative.
"We've already been in contact with George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, the people at Industrial Light and Magic and Pixar Studios," NASA spokesperson Yuri Mooney said.
Mooney went on to say that they had thought about asking enigmatic director Brian Singer in an advisory capacity, but the idea fell through at the last minute. "Most people are still confused by the ending of the Usual Suspects - and we'd really prefer to clear up this moon landing stuff once and for all.
"Naturally we will be looking for an improvement on what passed for special effects in 1969. There'll be attention paid to not labelling rocks, not having any wind to blow flags, not having converging shadows and not having any stars in the sky. This will be a total CGI-fest. We also thought about asking Andy Serkis to be a friendly alien, but negotiations broke down with the actor when we reasonably requested the use of a body-double instead of Serkis."
NASA is not ruling out a special Andy Serkis appearance in a possible sequel, NASA on Mars: The Fury of Wind Machines, which is hypothetically slated for US release in 2011.
When asked would the moon landing remake would be in the form of a 'live transmission' like the last time, Mooney responded: "It's doubtful at this stage - sixties audiences were far more interested in live performance shows than we are. There's far less risk of anything going wrong if we get the CGI perfect well in advance.
"We're calling it the George Lucas approach," the NASA spokesperson told journalists. "It's sure to be a hit."

HaHaHa! I like that 
You know what? This is just about the only conspiracy theory that I believe in! There's NO way that that we had the materials and technology to land people on the moon and bring them safely back again in 1969. I won't go into details now, just post your evidence to the contrary and I shall mercilessly shoot it down in flames! Well, try to...

Lol...
I saw a documentry explaining the evidence that could say that the famous moon landing was faked, wasn't sure of which way to lean myself, but it sure was interesting.

In the documentry I watched, I remember something about "cinema/film editing marks" left behind on the moon landing video. Small faint crosses that apparently only show when a movie or video such as a cinema film has been edited in a hurry, more common on older films.

No they didn't! They couldn't have, they didn't bring any Clangers back with them!
Seriously, there are a lot of holes in the whole moon landings story, there really are. Maybe America did get to the moon in the early seventies with the later apollo missions but personally I find that highly doubtful.

Things I remember...
- Film editing marks left behind
- Armstrongs movement was wrong for the environment
- Material used on the landing shuttle could never withstand space environments and pressures, was basically gold tin foil
- "Sun" shined on one side of the moon landing craft, yet the shadow of the craft was on the same side as the sun
- The American flag is moving (blowing about), there is no wind on the moon.

In the UK a while ago we had a documentary that debunked each and every one of the most of the theorys stating that the US had never landed on the moon.
prior to seeing this program me (the biggest sceptic in the world!) I was uncertain as to wether the US had actualy landed, I wish I could give you the title but for the life of me I cannot remember the name of it. But the deciding moment for me was the closing section when a guy from an observatory said "why did none of the theorists ask me" he has a had a scope focused on the landing site since 1969 and it clearly shows the stuff the astronaughts left behind. I will try to find the name and will post any links I can find.
I have owned the ... T68i T610, P800, P900, P910, P990, W950, P1, W960 But SE have now totally lost the plot. |
