We did so go to the Moon

I'm not sure everyone is aware of this but there are a few people who think we didn't land on the Moon back in 1969. To hear them tell it the whole thing was fabricated. Made up. A vicious lie supporting whatever pet conspiracy theory they've concocted.

NASA has proven them wrong.






The NASA Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter has been orbiting the Moon and recently sent back these photos of the Apollo landing sites (it's orbit hasn't taken it over Apollo 12 yet). These photos show the Lunar Descent Modules, scientific experiments left behind and even tracks in the lunar dust left by astronauts.

I've always marveled at the folks who think the whole thing was a put on. Do they need attention that badly? Is it simply beyond their imagination to think we could have accomplished such a feat? I mean if the freakin' Mythbusters debunk your evidence, your conspiracy theory doesn't hold water.

The video of Buzz Aldrin punching a spectacularly ignorant conspiracy theorist is here because I like to watch astronauts punch spectacularly ignorant people.
