    I think so; then again I also think it's because of how monumental an achievement the moon landings were, when you consider what they had to work with at the time. All the evidence either way aside, it's much easier to believe it was faked than real just given that factor, so I guess it's no surprise some people just can't believe it.

      I like how people cling to some pretty lame "facts" as proof like the photo of studio lights (clearly lens flare) or there are no stars.
      It's like NASA spent millions of dollars trying to convince people but forgot to crop a photo or put fake stars on the backdrop.

      I'd quite like the landing footage to pan across following Armstrong hopping across the lunar surface and they accidentally get some boom mic operator in shot, smoking a snout.

        Lets just let the species have this one win eh guys. For once a whole country worked together for a common goal of improving our species as a whole (even though at the top politicians really wanted to do i to bankrupt the ussr).

        We get one win. I’m choosing the moon landings and the people that made that happen.

                  Yes she was, and underrated as an actress.

                              Bang on. True one-off, looked bloody ninety, seemed quite scary (he should've been Snoke), made genius music at points, he's one of my heroes in a way but he seemed a bit terrifying, I remember when Adam and Joe met him, haha.

                              He was always gonna die and he knew it. Respect.

                              When I first got Facebook in 2007, I joined as a fictional character to preserve some level of anonymity and listed my school as 'The Birmingham School Of Business School'. It's a little cringey but I keep it up on there hoping one person will notice the reference. Nobody has so far. But a few very occasionally ask what my Birmingham college was like

                                Sad to hear that. I read The Dispossessed and was meaning to read more. I will now.
