[poorhunter78]

What a D...head... This motor mouth got what he had coming.. Go Buzz

[hombre_de_plata_flaco]

I've seen this before. The guy who got decked is one of those loons who thinks the moon landing was staged. Ol' Buzz wasn't hearing that mess.

[Chocadog]

Nice shot Buzz!

[jeff of pa]

well that convinced me he never walked on the moon.

too defensive

[The Beep Goes On]

Go Buzz! If Buzz was defensive about it, he probably would not be confrontational. He tried to be diplomatic. The guy became the target of Buzz' pent up anger over the continuation of this theory. Anyone know the outcome (did he sue)?

[Saturna]

Must ... believe ... conspiracy ... no matter ... what. Must ... believe.

We all have blind spots, or blinding spots, as the case may be. If you take any somehow erroneous situation, anything from a mistake at work to a flawed belief, you'll find that it was some other aspect of the situation that prevented right thinking. For instance, let's say it's the end of the day and you're rushing to get things done and you sacrifice a quality check for expediency; you might make a mistake because speed had a higher priority than quality. In the same way, something about this theory does something for this guy that may potentially blind him to, possibly, a better way to look at it. 'Blinding spots' are similar...the glare put off by some ideas prevent one from seeing anything but that idea.

[The Beep Goes On]

Beep are you saying this guy had a chip on his shoulder?

As big as the moon

I have seen the various information about this theory. I would, under duress, admit that it's possible, but highly unlikely bordering on impossible.

Would I believe that NASA would cover something up which may lend unrelated credence to this theory? Most likely, but a staged crowning achievement is hard to swallow.

[flip flop]

Buzz is freaking AWESOME !!

That idiot needed a good shot .......... just wish Buzz had gotten in a few more.

[allan]

Nice shot Buzz ! if it was a conspiracy where did they get a few hundred lbs of moon rock ?

[jeff of pa]

Nice shot Buzz ! if it was a conspiracy where did they get a few hundred lbs of moon rock ?

Did you get to test the rock ?
& the surface of the moon,
& Compare Findings ?

on the video,
I'll just say it was obviously
made to get the reaction it did.

he could have endid the whole thing
by swearing on the bible.

only things I can figure is Buzzy
either is very religous & Feard bursting into flames

Or he is not religous, & feard somone thinking he was.



Liar or not, he could have turned the guy
around simply by doing what he said.

This guy may have Known Buzz won't touch Bibles

He should be sued for assult.
but won't be because it's obvious
being hit made him famous.

Stuttering john fan ?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_la...iracy_theories

Different Moon landing conspiracy theories claim that some or all elements of the Apollo program and the associated Moon landings were hoaxes staged by NASA and members of other organizations. Various groups and individuals have made such conspiracy claims since the end of the Apollo program in 1975. The most notable claim is that the six manned landings (1969–1972) were faked and that the Apollo astronauts did not walk on the Moon. The conspiracy theorists (henceforth conspiracists) argue that NASA and others knowingly misled the public into believing the landings happened by manufacturing, destroying, or tampering with evidence; including photos, telemetry tapes, transmissions, rock samples, and even some key witnesses.

There is much third-party evidence for Apollo Moon landings and detailed rebuttals to the hoax claims.[1] Polls taken in various locations have shown that between 6% and 28% of the people surveyed believed that the manned landings were faked.

[jeff of pa]

my biggest problem is
Black & White Film.

True most TV's back then were still B&W
but nasa had color tv and
spent all that money & Used
B&W on that first mission ?
when color was available

why ?

Drama ? easier to hide things in it
like bugs flying etc. ? easier to
erase things when you only have black
white and gray to wipe

[The Beep Goes On]

They used color too, especially in the later missions.

I Have no problem with the later Missions.
But I Think they Faked the First one
for Political "Space Race" Reasons

As said, I am no one to say either way, and it is interesting and the motivation is there. We did leave behind some radar reflectors, but not sure if any were left in 69'. Remember, the Russki's operated a rover on the moon around the same time (unless it is another conspiracy, or better yet, a counter-conspiracy )...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunokhod_programme
Lunokhod (Russian: Луноход, "Moonwalker") was a series of Soviet robotic lunar rovers designed to land on the Moon between 1969 and 1977. The 1969 Lunokhod 1A was destroyed during launch, the 1970 Lunokhod 1 and the 1973 Lunokhod 2 landed on the moon and the 1977 Lunokhod was never launched. The successful missions were in operation concurrently with the Zond and Luna series of Moon flyby, orbiter and landing missions. The Lunokhods were primarily designed to support the Soviet manned moon missions and to be used as automatic remote-controlled robots to explore the surface and return pictures. The Lunokhods were transported to the lunar surface by Luna spacecraft, which were launched by Proton rockets. The moon lander part of the Luna spacecraft for Lunokhods were similar to the ones for sample return missions. The Lunokhods were designed by Alexander Kemurdjian[1] at NPO Lavochkin. Not until the 1997 Mars Pathfinder was another remote-controlled vehicle put on an extraterrestrial body. In 2010, nearly forty years after the 1971 loss of signal from Lunokhod 1, the NASA Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter photographed its tracks and final location, and researchers, using a telescopic pulsed-laser rangefinder, detected the robot's retroreflector.[2]
